GeniWrapper Support
Gush now supports the latest stable version of SFA/SFI/GeniWrapper. It also works if the user is not a PI (e.g. me). A few caveats though. In my case, my private key requires a pass phrase, so when I’m running the GeniWrapper as a standalone Python script, it prompts for my PEM Pass Phrase incessantly, because it’s trying to make several XML-RPC calls that require my credentials. Furthermore, if GeniWrapper is run inside Gush, the PEM Passphrase prompt kills Gush, which freezes and accepts no input (not even ^C or ^D). I think it has to do with how Gush handles I/O of external processes.
As a temporary solution, any passphrase needs to be removed from the private key. Otherwise, everything works fine.
