Getting Tahoe-LAFS
hunk ./docs/quickstart.html 17
This procedure has been verified to work on Windows, Mac, OpenSolaris, and too many flavors of Linux and of *BSD to list. It's likely to work on other platforms.

There are a few 3rd party libraries that Tahoe-LAFS depends on that might not be easy to set up on your platform. If the following instructions don't Just Work without any further effort on your part, then please write to the the tahoe-dev mailing list where friendly hackers will help you out. You might also find clues in the Advanced Install section described below.

Install Python

Check if you already have an adequate version of Python installed by running python -V. Python v2.4 (v2.4.4 or greater), Python v2.5, Python v2.6, or Python v2.7 will work. Python v3 does not work. On Windows, we recommend the use of Python v2.6 (native, not Cygwin). If you don't have one of these versions of Python installed, then follow the instructions on the Python download page to download and install Python v2.6. Make sure that the path to the installation directory has no spaces in it (e.g. on Windows, do not install Python in the "Program Files" directory).
-
If you are on Windows, you now must manually install the pywin32 package from the pywin32 site before getting Tahoe-LAFS. Make sure to get the correct file for the version of Python you are using — e.g. ending in "py2.6.exe" for Python v2.6. If using 64-bit Windows, the file should have "win-amd64" in its name.
