**note**: The pycrypto library needs to be available on your platform.
62+
on a typical windows sysytem `pip install pycrypto` will fail, as a compiler needs to be installed.

The quickest way around this is to use a pre-built binary, e.g. from here:

https://github.com/sfbahr/PyCrypto-Wheels

be sure to get the correct 64 or 32-bit binary for your system, the full commandline will look someting like this (64bit):

`pip install --use-wheel --no-index --find-links=https://github.com/sfbahr/PyCrypto-Wheels/raw/master/pycrypto-2.6.1-cp35-none-win_amd64.whl pycrypto`
