On Ubuntu 14.04, I installed it with the following sudo apt-get install mercurial "libsdl.*1.2-dev" build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep python-pygame sudo apt-get install python3-all-dev libswscale-dev libfreetype6-dev libavformat-dev pyvenv-3.4 --without-pip pygameve cd pygameve source bin/activate wget https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py python get-pip.py pip install hg+https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
I can't see how it would be made much easier until the changes required for 3.4 hit the stable release (supposing they've all been made: I did no testing). Then it can go to PyPI, as I understand it. Building wheels would be helpful if that's not already happening, I guess.
