Optional PySocks (also needed for testing) Optional (for testing) , Flask<2, httpbin, MarkupSafe<2.1, pytest-mock, pytest-httpbin, sphinx<5, trustme, and Werkzeug<2 First apply a patch so that the same environment variable already used to point to system certificates in Python3 following the installation of make-ca can also be used by this module: patch -Np1 -i ../requests-&requests-version;-use_system_certs-1.patch Build the module: pip3 wheel -w dist --no-build-isolation --no-deps $PWD Now, as the root user: pip3 install --no-index --find-links dist --no-cache-dir --no-user requests Assuming is installed, but the other optional dependencies are not, the installation can be tested with the following commands: python3 -m venv --system-site-packages testenv && source testenv/bin/activate && pip3 install --force-reinstall sphinx\<5 && pip3 install pytest-mock \ werkzeug\<2 \ flask\<2 \ pytest-httpbin \ pysocks \ trustme && pip3 install --force-reinstall Markupsafe\<2.1 && python3 /usr/bin/pytest tests deactivate See for how to set the environment variable, and for how local copies of the Certifi and Requests modules installed in a virtual environment will override the system certificates.
