Installing on windows, dependency on python-daemon

I'm going through the install process and am unable to get it to install on Windows. During the pip/easy_install process I'm getting an error. I get a similar, clearly related error, when downloading the .tar.gz file and going that route.

The error I get during using pip follows. I can't figure out how to remove the dependency on python-daemon as it looks like it's a linux-only lib.

Any help you can provide would be very helpful.

Thanks!

Have you done any progress on this? I don't know if it is recommended, but I think, if you try to move on with the rest steps of the installation, you will not have any problem.
