[zeromq-dev] problem building pyzmq

[eric]

I have a related problem ... I am unable to build pyzmq following the 
instructions for non-development release. Specifically:

I am trying to install a non-development (stable) release as described 
on http://www.zeromq.org/intro:get-the-software

I downloaded the 2.0.10 release for POSIX using the link on this page, 
which describes the release as "stable".

I then followed the instructions to build pyzmq, which are on the same 
page. When I follow the instructions, I get the following output and error.

eric at confidence:~/Desktop/pyzmq$ sudo python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
error: Cython-generated file 'zmq/core/context.c' not found.
                 Cython is required to compile pyzmq from a development 
branch.
                 Please install Cython or download a release package of 
pyzmq.

When I install Cython I get the error reported by Martin.

Help?
