Description Ales Musil 2021-12-15 12:49:48 UTC 
Description of problem:
Everything that uses python hashlib is failing on el9stream. The available openssl is compiled without md5. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python3-3.9.9-2.el9.x86_64
openssl-3.0.0-5.el9.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. import hashlib
 
Actual results:
ERROR:root:code for hash md5 was not found.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.9/hashlib.py", line 137, in __get_openssl_constructor
    f(usedforsecurity=False)
ValueError: [digital envelope routines] initialization error

Expected results:
Shouldn't fail

Additional info:
openssl is really compiled without md5: 
# echo "hello" | openssl dgst -md5
Error setting digest

Are you running under "FIPS mode"?
Python does not support that yet.
