The following is just a guess. I copy the files to a convenient location and then specify that location to setup.py. Below is an excerpt from my build process. mkdir c:\src\lib mkdir c:\src\include xcopy /Y mpir.h c:\src\include\*.* xcopy /Y win\mpir.lib c:\src\lib\*.* python setup.py build_ext -Ic:\src\include -Lc:\src\lib install > > I am asking because I don't know where it is looking for the MPIR library. > > Thanks for all suggestions, > > Alec Taylor -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
