[tahoe-dev] 1.9 update: soon! Need help with PyCrypto-2.4!

[Brian Warner]

I'd love to release 1.9 this weekend. I've given up on most of the
lingering docs tickets. I have some more manual testing to do (in
particular updating the "tahoe-deps" tarball and testing against it),
but we're pretty close.

One problem that surfaced, which I need someone to investigate:
FreeStorm's CentOS build failed last monday, probably because
PyCrypto-2.4 was released last week, and the buildslave seems to have
had problems compiling it:

 http://tahoe-lafs.org/buildbot/builders/FreeStorm%20CentOS5-i386/builds/551/steps/build/logs/stdio

The last few lines are:

  creating build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/Crypto/Protocol
  copying lib/Crypto/Protocol/Chaffing.py ->
build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/Crypto/Protocol

  copying lib/Crypto/PublicKey/__init__.py ->
build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/Crypto/PublicKey
  running build_ext
  error: Setup script exited with error: src/config.h: No such file or

Can someone look into this? It might be trivial, or something wrong with
the buildslave, but I'd like to know that current tahoe trunk will
correctly download+compile PyCrypto-2.4 .

thanks!
