In addition, we should:\n\n- [ ] Change `_ssl__SSLContext_set_ciphers_impl` to use `_setSSLError` as in `_ssl__SSLContext_set_ciphersuites_impl`.\n- [ ] If possible, ease the use of `_setSSLError`.\n- [ ] If possible, ease how we indicate that a functionality is not implemented and document which exception is being actually raised (this needs to be synchronized with https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/138633).\n\n### Has this already been discussed elsewhere?\n\nI have already discussed this feature proposal.\n\n### Links to previous discussion of this feature:\n\n- https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/138269#discussion_r2328597995 \n- https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/138269#discussion_r2328703198\n- https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/137198#discussion_r22820829\n\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e I will take care of this myself.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/picnixz","@type":"Person","name":"picnixz"},"datePublished":"2025-09-08T07:53:49.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/138634/cpython/issues/138634"}
