I don't know. I haven't tried. Maybe somebody else here has, but don't count on it. Have you tried it? If not, then why not? Try it. Maybe it just works. As far as I know, distutils haven't changed much, carefully avoiding any changes that could break packages. I think it's entirely possible that the web page author claiming "the installation" doesn't work was referring only to the Windows installer.
