c - Installing PygraphViz on Windows, Python 2.6

Question

Anybody out there has successfully installed PygraphViz on Windows?

Since there is not an official release for Windows, I'm trying to build it myself, but it fails to compile. I'm not the first one to face this issue, but I could not find an answer.

This is the console output:

C:Python26Libsite-packagespygraphviz-0.99.1>c:python26python.exe setup.py

Any help would be appreciated!

I appreciate this may be an obsolete thread by now, but to update it for others currently hitting this wall, the installer at Christoph Gohlke's Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages has just worked for me..
