Adafruit DHT22 repository requires access to .python-eggs #13

ExtractionError: Can't extract file(s) to egg cache

The following error occurred while trying to extract file(s) to the Python egg cache:

[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/root/.python-eggs'

The Python egg cache directory is currently set to:

/root/.python-eggs

Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? You can change the cache directory by setting the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment variable to point to an accessible directory.

only happens on non-pi users (nimrod from growberry-webserver)

Can be resolved by modifying environmental variable: PYTHON_EGG_CACHE

add: export PYTHON_EGG_CACHE=/home/nimrod337/.python-eggs

to the bottom of .bashrc

leaving open for now to remind me to fix with a more permanent solution.

After running for 2 hours, sampling every 10 minutes, the above solution failed again.
