Question

I have following issue of installing pygame package.

In file included from src/_numericsurfarray.c:23:
src/pygame.h:106:10: fatal error: 'SDL.h' file not found
#include <SDL.h>
         ^
1 error generated.
error: Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

System information

• Mac OS-10.9.2
• python version- Python 2.7.5 :: Anaconda 1.6.1 (x86_64)

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciate ? Thanks.

Here (OSX Mavericks) I got able to install this way:

brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf portmidi
pip install https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/get/default.tar.gz

("default" branch is on commit e3ae850 right now)
