Ignoring ensurepip failure: pip 7.1.2 requires SSL/TLS - Python 3.x & OS X
<p>I am trying to install Python 3.5.1 according to these instructions: </p>

<p>I have: OS X 10.11.3, no Homebrew. Xcode is installed. Xcode Command Line Tools are installed. </p>

<p>Everything goes well until <code>make install</code> has run for a while. Then it quits with this:</p>

<pre><code>if test "xupgrade" != "xno"  ; then \
        case upgrade in \
            upgrade) ensurepip="--upgrade" ;; \
            install|*) ensurepip="" ;; \
        esac; \
         ./python.exe -E -m ensurepip \
            $ensurepip --root=/ ; \
    fi
Ignoring ensurepip failure: pip 7.1.2 requires SSL/TLS
</code></pre>

<p>I have been searching for a long time and all I can find are instructions for Homebrew or for Apache or other servers. I understand that I've got to get SSL/TLS on my system, but I've had no luck.</p>

<p>The biggest reason I don't want Homebrew is that I want non-CS students to follow the same procedure, and I don't want them to install Homebrew. </p>
