failed, althouth there is no error, but when i import hashlib, error still come out.

I have installed python2.7.11 with this patch to feed non-default OpenSSL. However, with that _socket module does not get built. What am i missing ?

I have a new version of this patch for 2.7.14 (it uses an env var for OPENSSL_ROOT):

And another one if you want to use static libintl:

And here is the openssl patch for 3.6.3:
