Error installing Pygame on Ubuntu - python

So I've been following some instructions on how to install Pygame from this link here :http://programarcadegames.com/index.php?showpart=0#section_0.3
The the final three commands are as follows
$
# Use mercurial to clone current code
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
# Build and install
cd pygame
sudo python3 setup.py
$
When I run the final command to run the setup file, I get this error after everything before it runs fine.

Any ideas as to how I cann fix this issue and complete my Pygame installation?

You need to install the python development package, which includes those header files.
sudo apt-get install python-dev

python-mcrypt is a Python interface to the mcrypt library. You have to install mcrypt first.
found the solution for this issue .
For mcrypt.h, libmcrypt-dev needs to install by following command
sudo apt-get install libmcrypt-dev
after installing with above command python-crypt got install successfully with below command
pip install http://labix.org/download/python-mcrypt/python-mcrypt-1.1.tar.gz

You need to install libbluetooth-dev package for compiling your code
sudo apt-get install libbluetooth-dev
That should install the bluetooth header files.

virtualenv gcc error

IF I use --no-site-packages option while creating a virtualenv and try to install MySQL-python afterwards I get :
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
Here are the steps I followed:
easy_install-2.7 --install-dir ~/src/lib/ virtualenv==dev
~/src/lib/virtualenv --no-site-packages ENV
.../ENV/bin/pip-2.7 install MySQL-python
I also tried downloading mySQL-python and install using
.../ENV/bin/python setup.py build
I get the same error wither way.
I assume I am missing the gcc from this virtualenv but how do I get it installed in this virtualenv while still using --no-site-packages option.
thanks
EDIT: as per below comments here is the whole error output.

you need the mysql-devel package. to install, you need to specify the actual package name -
sudo apt-get install libmysql++-dev
Have you tried using the sudo command. I am guessing you are having permission issues than issue with anything else here. Usually an install throws up this error as it is trying to access directories with root permission which you don't own.
