"Error: CFFI (required for setup) is not available."

I can't seem to get python to like CFFI. I've installed it a few times, but I continuously get the above message when installing librtmp. Any ideas?

What OS are you on?

What happens if you download the source of python-librtmp and run python -c "from librtmp_ffi.verifier import verifier; verifier.get_extension()" in the directory?

I am on Mac Os 10.9.4 getting the same error. When i run the command above.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "librtmp_ffi/verifier.py", line 1, in
from cffi.verifier import Verifier
ImportError: No module named cffi.verifier

Did you install cffi?

Yes I have.
