I just signed up for DotCloud and got this while installing the pip package. Tried to fiddle around and could not solve it.
Running pip 1.2.1 under python 3.2.
Sorry, I don't know bits of Python so could not really figure out how to solve this by myself. If you have any python help to give me, please do it gently (although I do know PHP/Ruby pretty well).
$ sudo easy_install pip && sudo pip install dotcloud
[sudo] password for myself:

As it seems, for now DotCloud does not support Python 3, which unfortunately is the default version for Python on newer machines.
Thus, looks like it's not possible to install dotcloud through pip.
However, I managed to download the standalone package, unpacked it and installed using sudo ./setup.py install. The script calls for Python 2.7 automatically and installs everything cleanly.
