Building python (3.9.5) with different libexpat version (2.4.6) - raghupcr - Feb-25-2022
Hi All,
we are using python 3.9.5 version in our application.
when there are any issues ( security issues ) in external modules like openssl, bzip2 and zlib we were able to get the latest code and build.
but libexpat is internal module to the python and we dont see how we can upgrade libexpat alone in python 3.9.5
So is there a way we can build python (ex 3.9.5) which is already carrying libexpat 2.2.8 so that it will link to latest libexpat version (2.4.6 - fixed security issues)
another solution when we searched over the net and through mails what we came to know is we need to wait for python 3.9.11 where this will be linked to libexpat 2.4.6.
Any inputs on this will be helpful
Thanks
