==============================
Using the Let's Encrypt client
==============================
Prerequisites
=============
The demo code is supported and known to work on **Ubuntu only** (even
closely related `Debian is known to fail`_).
Therefore, prerequisites for other platforms listed below are provided
mainly for the :ref:`developers <hacking>` reference.
In general:
* `swig`_ is required for compiling `m2crypto`_
* `augeas`_ is required for the ``python-augeas`` bindings
.. _Debian is known to fail: https://github.com/letsencrypt/lets-encrypt-preview/issues/68

------
::
sudo apt-get install python python-setuptools python-virtualenv python-dev \
gcc swig dialog libaugeas0 libssl-dev libffi-dev \
ca-certificates
Mac OSX
-------
::
sudo brew install augeas swig
Installation
============
::
