[pycrypto] installing pycrypto on OS X 10.6

[Brendan Simon (eTRIX)]

 I have the following error while installing pycrypto on Mac OS X 10.6
(via easy_install).

    $ sudo easy_install -z pycrypto

    error: Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with

Why does the installer insist in using SDK for OS X 10.4 ??
Other easy_installs don't seem to have that restriction !!

My OS X 10.6 system has the following SDKs installed.

    $ ls -l /Developer/SDKs/
    drwxr-xr-x  7 root  wheel  238 30 Jun  2009 MacOSX10.5.sdk
    drwxr-xr-x  7 root  wheel  238  3 Aug  2009 MacOSX10.6.sdk


I have read one solution is to install the SDK 10.4, but that seems a
bit of a kludge.
Has anyone got this working with SDK 10.6 ??

Thanks, Brendan.
