    Python for Smartcards on Windows XP (Python 2.4)

    Dear all

    I headed for for a Smartcard lib for Python and found PyCSC. The zipped
    sources do not build [1] and the installer (exe file) wants to see a Python
    2.5 installation. Does anyone know of an installer for Python 2.4?

    Kind regards
    Thin Myrna

    [1] "python setup.py install" yields

    F:\Software.Pyt hon\PyCSC\PyCSC-0.3>python setup.py install
    running install
    running bdist_egg
    running egg_info
    writing .\PyCSC.egg-info\PKG-INFO
    writing top-level names to .\PyCSC.egg-info\top_level. txt
    installing library code to build\bdist.win 32\egg
    running install_lib
    running build_py
    running build_ext
    error: The .NET Framework SDK needs to be installed before building
    extensions for Python.

    This is strange, becaus ethere shouldn't be any dep's on .NET. Instead it
    should use MSVC6 to compile/link into pycsc.pyd.


Working...
