PyMySQL http://www.pymysql.org/ CyMySQL https://github.com/nakagami/CyMySQL *faster if using Cython Psycopg2 http://initd.org/psycopg/ not needed: midstate http://gitorious.org/midstate/midstate *not needed for blake256 Merged Mining ------------- Eloipool supports merged mining using the setworkaux/gotwork RPC interface. A simple port of namecoin's merged-mine-proxy to this interface is included and modified to allow more AUX chains: https://github.com/BlueDragon747/eloipool_Blakecoin/blob/master/merged-mine-proxy.py Dependencies ------------ Python 2.7 python-twisted Please be advised that: - Eloipool does not provide any interface for longpolling aux chains. - Empty and longpoll merkle roots are generated only as-needed, and will NOT be regenerated when CoinbaseAux changes. This means shares found by getwork miners after a longpoll will almost always be stale on your aux chain(s). This problem does not affect GBT or stratum miners.
