How can i install python-lzo-1.08?

Question

I need to install python-lzo-1.08. When i try to do it from gz-file, i getting error:
NameError: name 'CURL_DIR' is not defined
OS: win7
I can't anywhere find windows installer (google taking only gz or broken links to msi/exe).
Maybe anybody have this file? please, share! ( sergiy.panasyuk88@gmail.com ) Or help with error "name 'CURL_DIR' is not defined".

Thanx!

Answer 1

You can't simply install python-lzo on a windows based system. If you take a look at the windows install guide, you will find directions for building python-lzo on your system.

Unless you know that you already have a c/c++ compiler, I would recommend downloading something like cygwin or MinGW first, installing that, then follow the instructions in the readme linked above.

Check this:

• Python Extension Packages for Windows - Christoph Gohlke : http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#python-lzo

This web is a treasure for the windows' people :) In that place you can download binary packages, and avoid all the usual installation and compiling.
