py-rrdTool - install fails

[guthrie]

I want to do some rrd in a python cgi script, but am having trouble
getting an easy install module.

py-rrdTool looks good, but is distributed in c source, and is missing
a header file in the distribution. Thus the install fails when it
tries to reference rrd.h which is not there.

Are there better rrd modules to use, or a compiled version of this, or
other suggestions?

rrd.h is part of the rrdtools. You need to install rrdtools plus all its
dependencies. Have a lot of fun

Thanks;
I got py-rrttool-0.2.1 from sourceforge, but in its src directory it
has only 3 files,
_rrdtoolmodule.c, rrd_extra.h, and rrd_format.h

http://sourceforge.net/projects/py-rrdtool/files/py-rrdtool/0.2.1/

(same for site: http://www.nongnu.org/py-rrdtool/ )

Where should I be looking for other dependencies?

I installed rrdtools.exe, and don't see any rrd.h file in that
hierarchy.
