good to hear, but beware what it says in the last paragraph here https://pypi.org/project/psycopg2/ https://pypi.org/project/psycopg2/ ... "The binary package is a practical choice for development and testing but in production it is advised to use the package built from sources." ...or use one from your operating system distribution.

To all those wondering _why_ that is the recommendation, I did some digging and the answer is "the binary package is compiled against one version of libssl, and if your system happens to use a different one, in some weird edge cases it will lead to a segfault"

  Odd then that Digital Ocean's App Platform for Django deployment requires the binary version in your requirements file.
