[bpo-30916] Pre-build OpenSSL and Tcl/Tk for Windows by zooba · Pull Request #2688 · python/cpython (original) (raw)

Not ready to merge yet, but far enough along for @zware and any interested parties to take a look.

Before finally merging this, I'll do releasable/signed builds and upload them to the GitHub repository, which should make the CI pass.

The change to OpenSSL cannot be backported, in my opinion (unless we prove that it is totally safe). While the Tcl/Tk change can be, I'm not sure that it's worth it.
