Hello, I am trying to install kivy on my usb stick, and i have searched for days on the net but nothing works ,the initial error i get is that python 2.7.3 is not enough ,it needs python2.7.5-5 or later i guess.I have tried to install another version of python 2.7.7 is the latest i think , i installed it from source, also made an alias='the place of the new version' soby typing python in the command line i get the new version but still the python-kivy install doesen`t work. Please Help Me!!!

Ok I have solved this issue , anybody ho runs into this problem, download the tar file for kivy from their website,
add

deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian experimental main contrib non-free

this to the source.list in /etc/apt

make a sudo apt-get update

after that:

sudo apt-get -t testing install python

this will upgarde python to the newst version
and the extract the tar file from kivy
and do:

python setup.py install in the resulting folder

EASY AS HELL!!! Cheers
