There is an issue with the version of PyOpenSSL installed in OpenSUSE LEAP 42.2
The issue is known and fixed upstream. It was introduced and patched over a
period of a few months last year. Unfortunately, the version in 42.2 is from
that few month period. Relevant links to issues, and the pull request that was
the main fix are below.

The bug results in log spam (to the point of filling hard-drives) and
seg-faults
in applications that make use of these libraries in a certain way. The example
I encountered is that Kodi's add-on system is completely broken for LEAP 42.2
as a result of this bug.

Would it be possible to get either updated versions of PyOpenSSL (and possibly
the cryptography package as well, see issue links below) made available or 
patches applied to fix the bug for LEAP 42.2?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install OpenSUSE 42.2
2.Add Packman repo
3.Install kodi
4.Try to use/install Kodi add-ons (eg youtube add-on)
Actual Results:  
Results vary depending on add-on involved. The two main forms are seg-fault
that causes Kodi to crash, or the logs are spammed with thousands of messages
per second of the form:
Jan 23 15:31:45 borg kodi.desktop[2458]: extern "Python": function
Cryptography_rand_bytes() called, but @ffi.def_extern() was not called in the
current subinterpreter.  Returning 0.

Expected Results:  
No seg-faults. No log-spam.
