Extracting key for Calibre DeDRM plugin from Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 on Linux

I needed to do all this all over again because I made a new wine prefix; writing it down for future reference.

Assumptions:

• Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
• Python 2.7 installed in C:\Python27
• adobekey.pyw in C:\

(Install .msi files with wine msiexec /i <msi file>)

• install Python 2.7 (wine msiexec /i python-2.7.18.amd64.msi)
• install Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7
• install PyCrypto (in Python27/Scripts, run wine pip.exe install pycrypto)
• Get key with wine Python27/pythonw.exe adobekey.pyw

Notes:

• Currently maintained fork of DeDRM is https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools
