Hi to everybody,

I'm trying to run the installation (in-built and not) of SfePy in Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).

By now, I tried to do it using a python 2.7 distribution that came along with the anaconda package and installing all prerequisites using pip or conda. But when launching 'python setup.py install' or 'python setup.py build', the installer crashes.

My log window:

*MacBook-Pro-de-M:sfepy-master slowpoke$ sudo python setup.py install*

Any idea about what could be happening?

Thank you very much in advanced.
