python-daemon install failure

Question

I installed Python3.3 as non-root user, and use pip from python virtualenv to install beaver, a python module depends on python-daemon. However the install failure because python-daemon can not be installed.

Do I need to install anything else before install python-daemon? Or is this issue with Python3.3 itself?

Answer 1

Looks like beaver and python-daemon don't support Python 3 at this point. You'll have to use Python 2.x.
