Platform Specific Notes
=======================
Windows
-------
PGPy has not been formally tested on Windows. I see no reason why it wouldn't work, but your mileage may vary.
If you try it out and run into any issues, please submit bug reports on the `issue tracker <https://github.com/SecurityInnovation/PGPy/issues>`_!
Linux
-----
Building PGPy on Linux requires a C compiler, headers for Python, headers for OpenSSL, and libffi.
Debian
^^^^^^
PGPy is now in `Debian Sid <https://packages.debian.org/sid/python3-pgpy>`_, and can be installed simply::
$ sudo apt install python3-pgpy
Arch Linux
^^^^^^^^^^
PGPy is available on the `AUR <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pgpy/>`_
Gentoo
^^^^^^
There are gentoo ebuilds available in the `gentoo branch <https://github.com/SecurityInnovation/PGPy/tree/gentoo>`_
RedHat/CentOS
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Coming Soon!
Other Linux
^^^^^^^^^^^
Building PGPy on Linux requires a C compiler, headers for Python, headers for OpenSSL, and libffi, to support building Cryptography.
For Debian/Ubuntu, these requirements can be installed like so::
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev
$ sudo apt install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev
You may need to install ``python3-dev`` if you are using PGPy on Python 3.
For Fedora/RHEL derivatives, the build requirements can be installed like so::
$ sudo yum install gcc libffi-devel python-devel openssl-devel
