I'm looking for gevent for Python 2.7 for windows

However gevent depends upon greenlet and the .msi version I found fails to install and the egg for 2.6 refuses to install.

The msi version fails as follows.

C:\Windows\system32>easy_install greenlet
install_dir C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\

I guess this means that I have a wrong version of VS.

Is there anything else I can use?

I want to get PyQt4 so the GUI won't lock up if the database can't be reached or takes ages to reply.

This worked for me:

1. Grab the gevent installer from the Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages

2. Install greenlet from that same site

And if you're on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine and are having trouble installing, read this too.

You should ask the maintainer of greenlet to build .msi for Python 2.7.

I did it here: greenlet issue #17

Update: There are now builds for Python 2.7 on PyPI: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/greenlet

I've got latest version from here - http://code.google.com/p/gevent/downloads/detail?name=gevent-1.0a3.win32-py2.7.msi

There is .exe too. Look for both installer and .exe here - http://code.google.com/p/gevent/updates/list
