Error: "Unable to find vcvarsall.bat" when installing lingpy1.0.1 in Python 2.7x86- Windows 7 machine

I'm trying to install lingpy-1.0.1 using Python 2.7 on a Windows 7 machine. I have installed using manual install and easy_install, and both times I get the error: "unable to find vcvarsall.bat"

The screen capture of the error can be found here: https://i.sstatic.net/DXnf9.png

How should I go about fixing this?

Sounds like it's looking for a Visual Studio installation. You can use GCC instead; you can download this set that'll configure Python for you automatically. Or if you prefer you can install MinGW and edit distutils.cfg under your Python's \Lib\distutils folder to look something like this:

[build]
compiler=mingw32
