Pip error installing cryptography on Big Sur

Using pip version 20.2.4, Python 3.8.2 and Big Sur 11.0.1.

When I run pip install cryptography, I get this error:

I didn't ever encounter this before I upgraded MacOS. Any idea what I can try?

cryptography failed to install! If you are having issues installing cryptography the first troubleshooting step is to upgrade pip and then try to install again. For most users this will take the form of pip install -U pip , but on Windows you should do python -m pip install -U pip .

First install openssl

brew install openssl

Then export compiler options:

export CRYPTOGRAPHY_SUPPRESS_LINK_FLAGS="1" 
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/include"

and now you can use pip install

pip3 install cryptography==2.8
