Tried to install pyyaml today but got a couple nasty errors.
$ sudo easy_install pyyaml<br />

libyaml is not found or a compiler error: forcing --without-libyaml<br />
(if libyaml is installed correctly, you may need to<br />
specify the option --include-dirs or uncomment and<br />
modify the parameter include_dirs in setup.cfg)Fortunately, after piecing together a couple posts, the fix is easy. Use the following command to install PyYAML.
sudo python -m easy_install pyyamlWe must install this way because the problem is a bug in an Python’s setuptools. Its been fixed in later versions, but for now this did the trick for me.

Hi , i have used your method.
sudo python -m easy_install pyyaml
/usr/bin/python: No module named easy_install

Sounds like you need to install easy_install itself first.
