Please help, thanks.

python-dbus needs native C extension - which fail on your system. Look here how to install python-dbus for anaconda.

But since python-dbus isn't a requirement any (see #56) forex-python==1.3 should install with no error. Guess this can be closed now, too?

Thanks a lot! It works now.
