Pycrypto install fatal error: gmp.h file not found

Question

It seems like there are a number of people who have had a similar problem, however, after much searching I haven\'t been able to find a solution that works with my particular ar

Answer 1

If you use Homebrew, this should do the trick:

brew install gmp
env "CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib" pip install pycrypto

Using env will only make it work for that invocation. If you need to install pycrypto at a later time in this session export the variable instead.

export "CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib" 
pip install pycrypto
