Receiving error message when trying to install Pycurl

Question

I am trying to install Pycurl 7.19.3.1 and am receiving the following error message in Command Prompt:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6002]

Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 10 in c:\users\chris\app

Storing debug log for failure in C:\Users\chris\pip\pip.log

Does anyone know what the issue is here at all?

The log printed to the above path is saying the following:

Does this mean that Pycurl 7.19.3.1 no longer exists as a download link?

Thanks

If you just want to install and don't want to compile it, then download binary version of it from here (pycurl‑7.19.3.1.win32‑py3.3.exe)
