brew install bzr missing paramiko and pycrypto

If you’re using Homebrew to manage installation of your UNIX tools on Mac OS, and you use Bazaar for version control system needs, you’ll probably run into some trouble when you perform your first check out from a repository that depends on ssh:
$ bzr co sftp://somehost.com/home/someuser/projects/my_project bzr: ERROR: Unsupported protocol for url "sftp://asdfmeida.com": Unable to import paramiko (required for sftp support): No module named paramiko $ brew install paramiko Error: No available formula for paramiko
No problem. Just wget the latest version and install it yourself.
$ wget http://www.lag.net/paramiko/download/paramiko-1.7.4.zip $ cd paramiko-1.7.4 $ easy_install ./
According to the README file in the paramiko package, this will install all the necessary dependencies including pycrypto. This process could probably be a new brew formula contribution but this writeup is better than nothing for now.

ffplay missing on brew install ffmpeg

ffmpeg usually includes ffplay when you build it. However if you don’t have sdl installed, the build script will skip it.

On Ubuntu 10.10, you won’t have a problem. But if you’re a Mac OS user using a minimalist package manager like Brew, you have to fetch sdl yourself.
brew install sdl brew install ffmpeg

That should give you ffplay.
