If you run "python", then "import urllib.reqest" and "print( urllib.request.__file__)", what does it give you?
Comment by gregor (gregor) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 14:03 GMT
It returns the following:
---------------
/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py
---------------
Comment by Doug Newgard (Scimmia) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 15:16 GMT
Well that looks fine. Does "from urllib.request import HTTPSHandler" work at that python prompt?
Comment by gregor (gregor) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 15:17 GMT
no:
------------
ImportError: cannot import name 'HTTPSHandler'

Strange. What python package do you have installed?
Comment by gregor (gregor) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 15:44 GMT
A lot, please check the attachment :-)

I was really just looking for the interpreter package, not all the the libs. Looks like you have python 3.5.1-2 from the Extra repo? Not self-built?

How about "import ssl" "print( ssl.__file__ )"?
Comment by gregor (gregor) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 16:00 GMT
>>> import ssl
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/ssl.py", line 98, in <module>
import _ssl # if we can't import it, let the error propagate
ImportError: /usr/lib/python3.5/lib-dynload/_ssl.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: SSLv3_method

Make sure your entire system is up to date. This will include a new python package, as it was just moved to Extra a few hours ago. Also rebuild any AUR/local packages you have that my be linked to libssl.

This is very likely a partial update problem.
Comment by gregor (gregor) - Sunday, 03 July 2016, 20:16 GMT
Yes, it seems so. I installed now the latest updates and the problem are gone.
Thank you for your help.
