cryptography AssertionError: sorry, but this version only supports 100 named groups

问题

I'm installing several python packages via pip install on travis,

language: python
python:
- '2.7'
install:
- pip install -r requirements/env.txt

Everything worked fine, but today I started getting following error:

Solutions?

回答1:

There is a bug with PyCParser - See https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/3187

The work around is to use another version or to not use the binary distribution.

pip install git+https://github.com/eliben/pycparser@release_v2.14

or

pip install --no-binary pycparser
