[Bug 1899878] Re: Python's test_ssl fails starting from Ubuntu 20.04

[Christian Heimes]

PS: Ultimately it is your call how you want to handle the issue. You can
either treat it as a bug in Ubuntu's downstream patch or close the issue
as WONTFIX. In the latter case I'll add some hacks to our test suite and
update our documentation that some legacy TLS features are not working
on Ubuntu. I would appreciate if you fix the underlying issue, though.
An internal error in the TLS state machine sounds troubling.

Title:
  Python's test_ssl fails starting from Ubuntu 20.04

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Please take a look at https://bugs.python.org/issue41561. Developers
  who work on Python think that the issue is due to a change in Ubuntu
  20.04 that is best described by
  https://bugs.python.org/issue41561#msg378089:

  "It sounds like a Debian/Ubuntu patch is breaking an assumption. Did
  somebody report the bug with Debian/Ubuntu maintainers of OpenSSL
  already? Fedora also configures OpenSSL with minimum protocol version
  of TLS 1.2. The distribution does it in a slightly different way that
  makes the restriction discoverable and that is compatible with
  Python's test suite."
