Re: [Bkchem-user] Additional dependency in OASA 1.3.0

[Beda Kosata]

Hi Noel,

Thanks for reporting this issue.
The mhash library is only required to generate InChIKey from InChI.
Unfortunately it gets dragged in by another module (name_database) which
you probably do not need anyway :)
Please feel free to get rid of this problem by removing "name_database"
from the __init__ file. I will try to come up with a different scheme
for importing oasa which does not suffer from this problem of unrelated
dependencies breaking the installation.

        Best regards

                Beda

p.s.- In Python 2.5 the SHA-256 hash is already included, so there it is
no problem. This error only appears for Python 2.4 for which the mhash
library is needed.
