FLANN indexing for Python. Issue using LSH algorithm

Hello there. I am trying to do LSH search on some dataset, say 1000x128 with FLANN search. FLANN indexing is done with http://www.cs.ubc.ca/research/flann/ And then there's PyFlann's python module that I'm using. my code looks like this

flann = FLANN()
data = np.random.random((1000,128)).astype(np.float32)
desc = np.random.random((100,128)).astype(np.float32)

params = flann.build_index(data, algorithm="lsh", precision=0.7, table_number=6, key_size=12, multi_probe_level=1, cores=1)

and there's this error on CentOS 6.5

LSH is not implemented for that type
terminate called without an active exception
Aborted (core dumped)

This one on my windows 7 machine

...

self.__curindex = flann.build_index[pts.dtype.type](pts, npts, dim, byref(speedup), pointer(self.__flann_parameters))
WindowsError: [Error -529697949] Windows Error 0xE06D7363

So I googled for how to build index using LSH algorithm. And found no answer to my question in Python. Anybody having figured this out yet?

so, how is this related to opencv ?

I just realized that it's remotely related. Probably none. But I haven't found any other potential community to answer my question. Hope I didn't bother anyone.
