How To Install python-pyeclib on Debian 10
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install python-pyeclib
on Debian 10.
What is python-pyeclib
python-pyeclib is:
This library provides a simple Python interface for implementing erasure codes. To obtain the best possible performance, the underlying erasure code algorithms are written in C.
This library makes use of Jerasure for Reed-Solomon and provides its own flat XOR-based erasure code encoder and decoder. Currently, it implements a specific class of HD Combination Codes (see “Flat XOR-based erasure codes in storage systems: Constructions, efficient recovery, and tradeoffs” in IEEE MSST 2010). These codes are well-suited to archival use-cases, have a simple construction and require a minimum number of participating disks during single-disk reconstruction (think XOR-based LRC code).
This package contains the Python 2.x module.
There are three methods to install python-pyeclib
on Debian 10. We can use apt-get
, apt
and aptitude
. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.

After updating apt database, We can install python-pyeclib
using aptitude
by running the following command:
sudo aptitude -y install python-pyeclib
