    How to enable rotor in python 2.4.2?


    Dear all,

    I've installed python 2.4.2 and Zope 2.8.5 on a 64-bit Linux. As I'm
    installing FLE (http://fle3.uiah.fi/), I find that it will call the
    rotor module i npython. However, rotor is removed from python 2.4.2
    (http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?fun...item_id=14434). Could
    I enable rotor some ways in python again? Thanks.

    Regards,
    Murphy

      I compiled python 2.3.5 and copy the lib-dynload/rotor.so to the 2.4.2
      lib and it works... Thanks anyway. :)

          You could get the module from some older Python version
          (http://svn.python.org/projects/pytho.../rotormodule.c)
          and compile it for Python 2.4. You need a C compiler and a minimal
          setup.py file for compiling the module:

          from distutils.core import setup
          from distutils.exten sion import Extension

          setup (
          name = "rotor",
          ext_modules = [Extension( name="rotor",
          sources=["rotormodul e.c"]
          )]
          )

          HTH,

          -- Gerhard

              I don't know what FLE is but rotor is not a good encryption. Instead
              of restoring it to a new Python instance, FLE should be updated to not
              use it.
