Bing Cai:

I just try to install pyobjc or pyobjc-core via pip or easy_install under pypy's env, but just got the  following error(same issue also happened when using "pypy setup.py install" to install pyobjc or pyobjc-core):

sudo ./easy_install pyobjc-core

what I did:
1:download latest release peppy tar and extract to a local folder
2:Go to the pypy folder and run './bin/pypy ''path to pip and setuptools folder"/setup.py install' 
to install setuptools and pip
3:Go to the pypy folder and run './bin/easy_install pyobjc-core' to install pyobjc-core

Result:
the error above happened

please just let me know if you need more info
