Like many others, I'm having issues installing a python library (downloaded as a tar, then extracted).

clang: note: this will be a hard error (cannot be downgraded to a warning) in the future
error: command 'cc' failed with exit status 1
As suggested elsewhere, I tried entering in terminal "ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future sudo python setup.py install", but no success.
Is there a way around this issue that seems to have appeared with xcode 5.1?
Installing with (inside of the program folder you pulled down)
sudo -E python setup.py install
did the job!
