You did not download a stable release, you downloaded our current development branch. If you get the code via git, it is not a release.
It is an imprecise message: you need cython to develop the code *or* to build from our development repository. You checked out our development branch, which the doc currently points to. The reason is that we don't track the autogenerated .c files in git, so you have to use cython to generate them unless you download a zip/tar release where we have done the cython step for you. -MinRK On Nov 13, 2010, at 11:38, eric <[email protected]> wrote: > I've actually understood the difference between 0MQ and the PyZMQ > binding project. > > I just figured out that 0MQ is on 2.0.10, whereas PyZMQ is 2.0.8 ... so > when MinRK referred to PyZMQ's upcoming 2.0.10 release, I got the > version numbering mixed up which version number was referring to the > core and which was referring to the Python binding. > > What I am still confused by is something I read somewhere about > requiring Cython *IF* you are doing PyZMQ development, implying that I > don't need Cython if I am not doing PyZMQ development.
