I can't install psycopg2 on my m1 Mac. I tried to reinstall openssl with brew. I tried a lot of thing but nothing changed. The error log is super long so I couldn't understand what is wrong. I am facing up with this error when I try to pip install psycopg2 Waiting for your help.

The error is happening because it seems to be having some problem with ssl. I used different answers from a similar question to solve it for myself:
Install openssl if you don't have:
brew install opensslCheck the path where openssl got installed using:
brew --prefix opensslUse output from above and add LD flag when running the pip command, for example in my case the output was
/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl@1.1so I did the following:LDFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl@1.1/include -L/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl@1.1/lib" pip install psycopg2
And that did the trick for me.
