Topic: installation - missing dependency: slowaes on Mint 16 (Read 2329 times)
same problem here
try with python-slowaes is the correct slowaes for Saucy Salamander
I created the new wallet, entered a pw, selected auto server and it says connecting... in a gray box all alone.
Seems to be locked up, unless that process takes very long to complete. I'll check mem & cpu with ps...
Seems to be blocked. No memory increasing, no cpu use.
Also, I'm running electrum from the src as normal user not root.
Wondering what the differences are between pkg install, like menu item installation, docs, man page etc.
---
Decided it was taking far too long so I killed the process.
I restarted it but appended an "&" to run in background. Here's what happened:
**8 addresses were printed, first 5 were the same as listed in the gui plus 3 more**
The main gui started, but I'm not confident this is an install I can trust.

What are your specs? I use Linux on my crappy old laptop, and first start on a wallet takes me 5 minutes of gray screen before it actually pops up. Signing a 10 input tx is like 10 minutes.
Crappy specs can take time... but yeah, so what specs are you at?
To install slowaes on a system with pip >= 1.4 you have to use the --pre flag. So as root:
You only need to do this for slowaes not for ecdsa.
Of course you should verify the sigs etc. before installing Electrum:

Code:
pip install --pre slowaes
pip install Electrum-1.9.8.tar.gz

I'm pretty sure it's fine. What you can do is write down the first few characters of your initial addresses and then start with a different wallet path, use your seed and make sure it's generating the same addresses. If they do; it's all good 
You can load a different wallet with the -w flag. So for instance ./electrum -w ~/.electrum/wallets/test

No problem. The thing is that AES should be included in the tar.gz package already so pip shouldn't need to download it. Glad you got it working. Let me know if there is anything else.
Thanks Tachikoma, it seems to run, at least I get the initial dialog to create a new wallet.Who knows if slowaes is really a dependency on all platforms. It doesn't seem to be, but you may hear more from me when I proceed through the GUI and create the wallet. I suspect slowaes has to do with key generation, but there may be several algorithms to do that, slowaes being only one.
As I said, stay tuned as I proceed through the installation.
Thanks for your help!
Ah sorry.
Just cd in it and try ./electrum.
Code:
wget https://download.electrum.org/Electrum-1.9.8.tar.gz
tar -zxvf Electrum-1.9.8.tar.gz
Just cd in it and try ./electrum.
This is really strange. Could you try just downloading and extracting the source and running ./electrum ?
Sure, with a little guidance. From what url? Use wget?
Are you talking about a python script or compiling the source for electrum?

Could you try the following?

apt-get purge python-pip
wget https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
pip install slowaes
Ran into error on last line, pip isn't in the path.

In trying to install I have a missing dependency - slowaes. If anyone here can help I'd truly appreciate it.
