When trying to run pip install -r requirements.txtin the scrape tutorial on Mac OS X 10.9, the following error returns - and is obviously related to psycogs2:

    Please add the directory containing pg_config to the PATH
    or specify the full executable path with the option:

Cleaning up...

Note that I do have gcc installed to compile, as gcc --version returns the following:

Well, I could solve it myself. I did another symlink and I could use pip afterwards:

sudo ln -s /Applications/Postgres93.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/pg_config /usr/bin/pg_config.

Ah I see. I think this warrants better setup how-to with the instructions on the new coder site. I've seen this before. Thanks!
