I got the problem of installing xbrl module to python, and it has bothered me for two days and I haven't solved it. I successfully installed pip. I got the same problem when installing lxml
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-xbrl/1.0.7
When I use: $sudo pip install python-xbrl, I got
Downloading/unpacking python-xbrl
Downloading python-xbrl-1.0.7.tar.gz

I assume that it is installed successfully, however, when I import xbrl, it doesn't work
$python
>>> import xbrl
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named xbrl
I also tried to install lxml using pip, but I always got something wrong when cleaning up:
...

I got the same problem all the time when installing most of the modules. I'm desperate after 30 hours' try. So please help me. Thanks!
