Python/OpenSSL issue: ERROR:root:code for hash md5 was not found

This error occurred while installing latest Ruby using ruby-install.

What I tried:

brew switch openssl <my_version>

brew upgrade openssl

And many other solutions that were proposed in SO. None solved my problem.

So the problem is actually coming that python2 is not supported, but you can solve it by installing just correct openssl via brew, e.g.

brew install [email protected]

Though there were a lot of similar questions floating around in SO, I think none of them were able to solve my issue. Thought of adding this question with the fix that solved it for me. I got it from a medium post:

Since Python 2 End of Life Announced as January 1st 2020 as well as brew no longer support python 2. The solution is uninstall the package.

brew uninstall python@2
