Subject: Error During Pyfhel Installation on Ubuntu

Dear Ibarrond,

I hope this message finds you well. I am attempting to install Pyfhel on my Ubuntu system (version 20.04.4 LTS) using Python 3.10.4 and encountered an error during the installation process. Here are the details:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS Release: 20.04 Codename: focal

Python Version: Python 3.10.4

g++ Version: g++ (Ubuntu 9.4.0-1ubuntu1~20.04.1) 9.4.0

Error Message: [...] /tmp/pip-install-crgru3fg/pyfhel_c09d03f5f45b418cbdfa9c5d141fb0f5/Pyfhel/Afhel/Afseal.cpp:167:9: error: declaration shadows a field of 'Afseal' [-Werror,-Wshadow] auto &context = *(this->get_context()); ^ /tmp/pip-install-crgru3fg/pyfhel_c09d03f5f45b418cbdfa9c5d141fb0f5/Pyfhel/Afhel/Afseal.h:241:33: note: previous declaration is here shared_ptr context = NULL; /*< Context. Used for init/ ^ fatal error: too many errors emitted, stopping now [-ferror-limit=] 2 errors generated. error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit code 1 [end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ERROR: Failed building wheel for Pyfhel Failed to build Pyfhel ERROR: Could not build wheels for Pyfhel, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

It seems that there is a declaration shadowing issue in the 'Afseal' module. I wanted to bring this to your attention, as it is preventing successful installation on my machine.

Please let me know if there are any specific steps or workarounds to address this issue, or if any updates to Pyfhel are planned that might resolve this problem.

Finally, I tried to install Pyfhel on Win 10 and I have similar errors.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards, Michael M.

Dear Friend,

I've successfully installed the Pyfhel library on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)!

Distributor ID: Kali Description: Kali GNU/Linux Rolling Release: 2022.4

The process went smoothly, and I'm excited about the possibilities this library opens up for secure homomorphic encryption. It's incredible to see how well it integrates with WSL, providing a seamless experience.

Best Regards Michael M.

Glad to hear! The error was quite weird, though. I'll patch it just in case, thanks for raising the ticket!
