Best way to install pygame on OS X Lion?

Question

I tried to install pygame via pip but this fails. Based on my google searches, it sounds like easy_install also fails.

I also checked out: http://www.pygame.org/wik

Answer 1

I had good luck with macports:

1. Install macports if you don't already have it: http://www.macports.org/
2. Install python via macports: sudo port install python26. I typed in the command it said at the end to set it as my default python installation. If you don't, then in step 4 you'll have to run the app a different way.
3. Install pygame: sudo port install py26-game
4. Run your pygame app: python main.py
