Did you build pycryptopp yourself or did you let the Tahoe-LAFS
setup.py download a pycryptopp binary?

If you let the Tahoe-LAFS setup.py fetch one, it might have fetched
the Python 2.7 linux-x86 pycryptopp from here:
https://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/deps/tahoe-lafs-dep-eggs/README.html
.

I think it is probably a mistake on our part to try to host those
binaries for Linux, because the egg format doesn't convey enough
information for us to build binaries that will work on all linux-x86
systems. If you could confirm whether that was the package that caused
this trouble for you, I'll go ahead and take it down and stop hosting
it.

If you built the pycryptopp binary yourself and then go that error,
please tell us more so we can help debug it.

By the way, it looks like you work for this company:
http://www.unitrends.com/ . It would be great if a company like yours
started using Tahoe-LAFS to protect your own data and/or your
customers' data! Let us know how we can help.
