Trying to install the python library pycurl on my Windows machine. I already have pip set up so I'm using the command, "pip install pycurl". However I get this in the error logs -

    Please specify --curl-dir=/path/to/built/libcurl
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Please specify --curl-dir=/path/to/built/libcurl

I tried using the --curl-dir tag but it is not recognized.

    Why don't you use windows built [libraries](http://pycurl.sourceforge.net/download/). Maybe simpler ! – sk11 Sep 24 '14 at 15:21
  • It has crashed every time I try to run the run the executable. Maybe because I have a 64 bit versions of Windows? – Kat Sep 24 '14 at 15:22

Using urllib2 library instead which I installed onto my machine with zero issues.
