RussianQuestion
I am trying to install IMDbPY in all sorts of ways and keep failing. The package is not pure Python (it has a few C lines) and I suspect that the compilation is the root cause (I'm on Windows).
What I've attempted so far:
pip install imdbpy.easy_install imdbpy.- Downloading IMDbPY-4.9.tar.gz from Pypi Package Index > IMDbPY 4.9, extracting the thing and then
python setup.py install. - I've noticed that pip was trying to install the following packages: imdbpy, SQLObject, FormEncode, SQLAlchemy, decorator, Tempita. I've decided to try installing those packages one after the other by myself, starting with Tempita. I went to Pypi Package Index > Tempita, downloaded the archive, extracted and then
python setup.py install. It also failed.
The output of each attempt:
pip install imdbpy:

Aaargh! An error! An error!

Anyway, if you were trying to build a package or install IMDbPY to your
system, looks like we're unable to fetch or install some dependencies,
or to compile the C module.
The best solution is to resolve these dependencies (maybe you're
not connected to Internet?) and/or install a C compiler.
You may, however, go on without some optional pieces of IMDbPY;
try re-running this script with the corresponding optional argument:
--without-lxml exclude lxml (speeds up 'http')
--without-cutils don't compile the C module (speeds up 'sql')
--without-sqlobject exclude SQLObject (you need at least one of)
--without-sqlalchemy exclude SQLAlchemy (SQLObject or SQLAlchemy,)
(if you want to access a )
(local SQL database )
--without-sql no access to SQL databases (implied if both
--without-sqlobject and --without-sqlalchemy
are used)
Example:
python ./setup.py --without-lxml --without-sql install
The caught exception, is re-raise below:

Solution
If you're using Python 2.7 32 bit you could try out the binary package listed towards the bottom of this page.
OTHER TIPS
You could try installing Visual Studio Express 2008 (not 2010), it's free and provides the needed compiler.
You can also switch to ActivePython and use Pypm to install this package.
