Could not build uvloop: uvloop/loop.c no such file or directory

Hi,

I tried to build the project to run the test on my machine (Ubuntu 14.04, 64b).

First I had to install automake and libtool (you may want to add this step on the readme), then running make I got:

    building 'uvloop.loop' extension

The project isn't even in its "alpha" state right now ;)

To build you need cython, and to clone the repo with '--recursive'. Then simply run "make"

I just wanted to test it here to report failing test, hoping it would help you since I like the project. If you think it's too early for that, I can do that when the project is more mature. I don't want to add noise.

After installing cython, I could run the test and good news:

$ make test
PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG=1 python3 -m unittest discover -s tests
.................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 49 tests in 13.877s

OK
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests
.................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 49 tests in 1.992s

OK

Let me know if you need me test more stuff :)

I'm working on the project right now. Have a bunch of changes to push. I think we'll have an alpha pretty soon.

Just pinging to get some news on the project. Again, if you need me to run tests on some machines, let me know.

I'm a bit distracted by a few other projects, but I'm going to find some time to push uvloop to alpha soon. I need it for our core product in my firm, so be sure -- the project isn't dead ;)

Closing this one.
