I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I would like to install the latest IMDbPY because the one in the repository has a bug with the country codes. This bug has been fixed in the later versions, but I don't know how to install the latest version. I don't have experience in installing python modules/packaes which are not in apt-get.

Can you tell me how can I either install the latest version from source or use a newer repository for this package?

I would prefer to install from source, as current version now is 4.8.2 and the newest one in the later repositories is still only 4.7.1.

I installed python-setuptools and now when I try to run:

sudo easy_install IMDbPY

it returns:
