Hi,

You missed to install the openssl-devel package. Please install the same and try pip install aerospike. This will resolve your issue.

Fails to install on Arch. Looks like it's searching for tools not specific to Arch distro: "lsb_release" and "rpm".

I just viewed the build script...wow....can anyone explain why python client is firmly coupled to specific distros? Doesn't make much sense. I think this is the first package I ever witnessed to be distro specific. Well done!

With pip (>=19.0) and latest python client (>=3.8.0), you should be able to install on linux without needing to download the c client or install any other dependencies anymore.
