There are other alternative solutions though if we are not limited to
use the built-in python bindings of libftdi.
For example:
1) pyftdi, based on pyusb and not libftdi
https://github.com/eblot/pyftdi
2) pylibftdi, based on libftdi
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pylibftdi
https://bitbucket.org/codedstructure/pylibftdi
There are also other solutions based on ftd2xx.
