Problem installing pyatspi from svn

Hi,

Don't know if this is the right forum to ask this but at least it looks like :D

I'm trying to install pyatspi[0] with no luck, I really don't now if I'm doing something wrong or it's a bug somewere.

Here are my steps

1) svn co svn://svn.gnome.org/svn/at-spi/trunk/pyatspi pyatspi
2) cd pyatspi
3) sudo python setup.py install
Here is the install trace:

running install

I'm using python 2.6.2 and a 64bits version of arch.
This warning is what worries me --> package init file '__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file), but i get the same when running the install process on a Kubuntu machine.

Here is my locate result

Here is the trace of the install process on a Kubuntu i686 machine

and the locate result (without docs and debian-related stuff)

/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pyatspi/registry.py
/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pyatspi/registry.pyc

After doing the install procces I can succesfully import the module on Kubuntu, but on Arch I get a nice

$ python -c "import pyatspi"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named pyatspi

Note: If I create a __init__.py file inside /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pyatspi I can import the module, but it makes no differece because it useless.

Thanks in advance.
