This weekend I just installed PyGame to try prototyping a very old game idea. I installed PyGame-1.9.1release from source. I had to install libportmidi, libsdl-mixer, libsdl-ttf, libsdl-net and their dev pkgs along with python2.6-dev (which gives you Python.h)
I finally got a moving square after tweaking a snippet of code that I found online. Lets see where this goes :D
