I looked through the setup.py to figure out what assumptions their build process made. First, the file pycrypto-2.5\src\inc-msvc\config.h must be modified. Below is the file I used:
config.h =================================================================== /* Define to 1 if you have the declaration of `mpz_powm', and to 0 if you don't. */ #define HAVE_DECL_MPZ_POWM 1 /* Define to 1 if you have the declaration of `mpz_powm_sec', and to 0 if you don't. */ #define HAVE_DECL_MPZ_POWM_SEC 0 /* Define to 1 if you have the `gmp' library (-lgmp). */ #undef HAVE_LIBGMP /* Define to 1 if you have the `mpir' library (-lmpir). */ #define HAVE_LIBMPIR 1 /* Define to 1 if you have the <stdint.h> header file. */ #define HAVE_STDINT_H 1 =================================================================== Although I was able to specify an include directory for mpir.h with -Ic:\usr\include, I was not able specify a lib directory with -Lc:\usr\lib. It looks like setup.py does not honor the -L option. So I finally gave up and just copied the mpir.h file into my Python27\include directory and the mpir.lib file into my Python27\libs directory. After copying the files "python setup.py install" was successful. I created a binary installer with "python setup.py bdist-wininst". There may be a cleaner way to build PyCrypto, but these steps worked for me. casevh -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
