I am being effected by a bug in the c-ares dependency of PyCurl. The current version used in the latest official build is c-ares/1.10.0 and the fix in c-ares/1.11.0.

Are you happy wielding a Microsoft compiler? Not scared by compiling something from source? Can you follow instructions? If so this is totally the job for you. There are even instructions and a build script!

Our python project is currently using the latest build of PycURL on Windows as follows.

$ python

Python 3.4.2 (v3.4.2:ab2c023a9432, Oct 6 2014, 22:15:05) [MSC v.1600 32 bit (Intel)] on win32

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import pycurl

>>> [login to view URL]

'PycURL/7.43.0 libcurl/7.47.0 OpenSSL/1.0.2f zlib/1.2.8 c-ares/1.10.0 libssh2/1.6.0'

>>>

The scripts which make the official binaries for distribution are opensource. Examples of their output is [login to view URL]

[login to view URL] and specifically [login to view URL] for the scripts which do this.

The project deliverable is a installer like the ones found at [login to view URL] which works with Python 3.4 (32bit install) which install PycURL with the required dependencies at the following software versions.

PycURL/7.43.0

libcurl/7.47.0

OpenSSL/1.0.2f

zlib/1.2.8

libssh2/1.6.0

c-ares/1.11.0 (which is the only thing different from the official build)

I don't particularly mind if libcurl/openssl/zlib/libssh2 are new versions provided these are stable release and everything works.

Bonus!

We only really need one working installer and the project will be a success without this but there's 25% extra on top of your winning bid if you can produce a second build with the following variants.

c-ares at version 1.12.0.

OpenSSL at the latest stable.

libcurl at the latest stable.

Good luck and happy bidding.
