Problem installing Cython

[Sujay Patil]

Hello, 

I apologise because I have a very basic question. I have a problem installing Cython and can't figure out a solution to it. Can anyone please help me ? I cannot proceed to Kivy installation without having Cython installed. 

ChhayaBdanesMBP:~ chhayabhadane$ pip install cython

Thanks a lot Richard for taking the time to respond to my question. Unfortunately I have to bother you a little more. Cython installation succeeded with the instruction you suggested. But there seems to be a problem with the Kivy installation process. Can you tell me if I need to worry about this incomplete installation ? Are the modules or packages that were not installed critical to functioning of Kivy ? Please find the message on the terminal below :

It is strange that you still get permission errors after running the command as 'sudo', but perhaps you are not setup as a 'sudoer' on that machine? You could try using a virtual environment, which gives you much more leeway.

http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/

But something tells me that is not going to work. Below, you post an incomplete log. Please post the everything, the full log, that we might get more insight...

Thanks

Please find below the complete log.

The log shows you are not using sudo. Try:

    sudo pip install kivy

[Sujay Patil]

I tried using 'sudo pip install kivy' but it didn't work. Please find the complete log below. Since it didn't work, I tried 'sudo -H pip install kivy'. It seems to have worked but I am sceptical. I have posted the log below as well. I am using my Mother's macbook that she gave me when she switched to Windows. Honestly speaking I don't know how to replace her sudo with mine.

Hello Richard, 

I managed to install it using : sudo -H pip install kivy 

And I tested it by writing a few lines of code. Thanks for your help.
