<para>
Some Python 3 modules can't be built now because the dependencies
are not installed yet. For the <filename>ssl</filename> module,
a message <quote><computeroutput>Python requires a OpenSSL 1.1.1 or
newer</computeroutput></quote> is outputted.
The message should be ignored. Just make sure the toplevel
<command>make</command> command has not failed. The optional
modules are not needed now and they will be built in
<xref linkend="chapter-building-system"/>.
