How do you install Python Xlib with pip?

Question

"Python Xlib" (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Python%20Xlib) is a low level python library for working with xlib. I have installed it on my Ubuntu Linux machine via apt, i.e. `sudo aptitude install python-xlib`. However is it possible to install it with `pip` in a virtualenv? I am writing a software package that uses xlib, and would like to be able to include an `install_requires` line in my `setup.py`. Since the package is on PyPI (and appears in results of `pip search xlib`), I tried to `pip install …` the following package names but nothing worked: `python\ xlib`, `python-xlib`, `Python Xlib`, `Python-Xlib`, `Python%20Xlib`, but none worked. Is it possible to install python xlib with pip?

Accepted Answer

```
sudo pip install svn+https://svn.code.sf.net/p/python-xlib/code/trunk/
```
