I made it all the way to the end of the pygame installation directions, but I keep getting an error I don't know how to fix. When I attempt to build pygame I get this:

python3 setup.py build

What is causing the error? It says I need to check Xcode but Xcode is installed and works just fine.

After hours of installing multiple files and versions of pygame and python, I found this website: http://web.mit.edu/6...www/pygame.html

That's all I had to do! I have a mac with Lion and this is what finally worked. I would ignore the headfirst directions for installing pygame until they're updated. (And don't bother with the "help" on pygame.com - their directions for mac Lion aren't even complete!)
