<title>No PyPI</title>
<body>
<p>Most third-party Python packages and modules are available and distributed through
the Python Package Installer, known as PyPI.</p>
<p>Due to the nature of what these bindings are and how they work, it is infeasible to install
the GPGME Python bindings in the same way.</p>
<p>This is because the bindings use SWIG to dynamically generate C bindings against
<codeph>gpgme.h</codeph> and <codeph>gpgme.h</codeph> is generated from
<codeph>gpgme.h.in</codeph> at compile time when GPGME is built from source. Thus to
include a package in PyPI which actually built correctly would require either statically
built libraries for every architecture bundled with it or a full implementation of C for
each architecture.</p>
