Hi

Just tried to install VIFF to have a play around.

I followed the instructions at...

http://viff.dk/doc/install.html#gnu-linux


Issues:

a) When typing...

           python setup.py install --home=$HOME/opt

   I get the directory

           $HOME/opt/lib/python

   created, but not

          $HOME/opt/bin

   There seems to be no error messages in the setup.py output. Has
   setup.py run correctly?

b) I then go do viff/apps and type...

    python generate-config-files.py -n 3 -t 1 \
    localhost:9001 localhost:9002 localhost:9003

    Resulting in the error message

   Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "generate-config-files.py", line 57, in ?
     from viff.config import generate_configs
   File "/home/projects/crypto/Linux/lib/python/viff/config.py", line 33, in ?
     from viff.prss import generate_subsets, PRF
   File "/home/projects/crypto/Linux/lib/python/viff/prss.py", line 47, in ?
     from gmpy import numdigits
   ImportError: No module named gmpy


Any ideas?

Cheers

Nigel
