Having difficulty on Python 3.5.2, macOS Sierra.

Howdy!

I’m having some trouble installing fastecdsa on Python 3.5.2, installed via the official packages, with homebrew-supplied libgmp.

In a fresh virtual environment, pip install fastecdsa explodes gloriously:

However, when running python -c "from fastecdsa import curve, ecdsa, keys":

What might be going on here?

I just pushed some changes for python3 compatibility, I tested them in a virtualenv using python3.4 and they cleared the test suite. Haven’t benchmarked performance but I see no reason it would be much different from the python2 performance. Let me know if you’re still having trouble ($ pip install fastecdsa==1.2.1 should do the trick).

Happy to hear that did the trick for you! 😃
