Alternatively, you can run python in 32 bit mode by setting the following environment variable before running the setup.py command:
`sudo yum install pyserial wxpython pyglet`
This alternative approach is confirmed to work on Mac OS X 10.6.8.
### Archlinux
`export VERSIONER_PYTHON_PREFER_32_BIT=yes`
Packages are available in AUR. Just run
`sudo python setup.py install`
`yaourt printrun`
Then repeat the same with http://http://pyglet.googlecode.com/files/pyglet-1.1.4.zip
and enjoy the `pronterface`, `pronsole`, ... commands directly.
