pycrypto no longer supported (especially in aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc) about social-engineer-toolkit

[13ghost212]

Is there any solution to this

[PythonCoderUnicorn]

this is the closest open issue to the one i have run into while installing , i copied the commands for Linux and most of the setup is fine except for pycrypto build

The line 87 on Python.h file is : #include "cpython/pytime.h"

In the cpython/pytime.h file, I have this warning : warning: ‘struct timespec’ declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration

I think the error is related _PyTime_t API.

In this link about the lonintrepr.h issue, webknjaz claims

"Thanks! It usually doesn't make sense for us to be working on the next interpreter support until rc are out because the build deps like Cython can't keep up with the ABI changes anyway."

Is it because the project doesn't compile with python 3.11 ? I will try with older versions of python 3.

PS :

I tried with python3.10 and It works ! I think it's a dependency problem in python >=3.11
