I need help installing pydasm into python 2.7. The readme.txt file tells me that I have to enter python setup.py build_ext into the cli. When I do, I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 22, in <module>
raise DistutilsPlatformError()
distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError
If you can help, please let me know!
Since no one answered my question, I thought I would so if other people have the same issue they can look here for help.
I went to this site: http://ademata.blogspot.com/2010/07/installing-pydasm-and-pefile-module-on.html
Follow these instructions:
Pydasm is included with the module libdasm. An open source fork is available at http://libdasm.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ svn/libdasm-read-only and requires the use of the subversion tool. To install subversion use sudo apt-get install subversion.
Run the following command to download the latest libdasm code: svn checkout http://libdasm.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ svn/libdasm-read-only
Run the following series of commands to install the module on python:
cd svn/libdasm-read-only/
make
sudo make install
cd pydasm
sudo apt-get install python2.6-dev
(use the most recent, so for me I did 2.7)
python setup.py build_ext
sudo python setup.py install
Pefile is included in Ubuntu's repository, to install the pefile module run sudo apt-get install python-pefile.
Hope this helped.
