Which Crypto Library?

[GiBo]

Hi

I need some encryption done in my Python 2.5 application. I wonder
what's the most recommended library? I've found M2crypto and some
OpenSSL wrappers and Python Cryptography Toolkit and some others. No
surprise I'm confused

What's the most often used library for crypto?

For now I need a simple AES, no asymmetric crypto or GPG involved.

Thanks!

I use pycrypto without any simplification wrappers (e.g. ezPyCrypto) and
it seems straightforward to me. You might try the simplification
wrappers though.
