  Just so everyone knows:
    $ make ssdeep.c
    $ make all

  Thats where ssdeep.c comes from.

oddly "make" alone works for me.

i also checked in the .c file so pyrex shouldn't be needed any more.

Also note you get the 'fuzzy.h' file from the latest version of ssdeep here:

When I install I do not get the pyssdeep directory. How do I install this?

I've done:

./configure
make
make install

How do I install pyssdeep?

Original comment by jbde...@gmail.com on 5 Mar 2011 at 12:29

[GoogleCodeExporter]

You need to checkout the pyssdeep source into your 'ssdeep' source directory, 
build ssdeep and then build pyssdeep:

$ pwd
/home/erik/ssdeep-2.6
$ ./configure && make
...
$ svn co http://pyssdeep.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pyssdeep-read-only
...
$ cd pyssdeep-read-only
$ python setup.py build

I had lots of errors on building even when using ssdeep-2.2, I fixed the issues 
by installing python-dev headers. 

In Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install python-dev

I had a similar error, pip install pyssdeep was failing with fatal error: 
fuzzy.h not found.

It can be fixed by installing "libfuzzy-dev" (Ubuntu 12.04.4) via apt.
