Trying to build... can't even configure

[NigelThorne]

Hiya,

I just cloned the repo (on ubuntu) then following the steps

11:52:55 {master} ~/code/diodon-plugins$ ./waf configure --libdir /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/nigel/code/diodon-plugins/waflib/Node.py", line 490, in ant_iter
    raise StopIteration
StopIteration

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Did I miss something? Do I need something installed? Cheers Nigel

I had to use Python2

For anyone playing along at home... I'm using direnv and asdf

I added a file .tool-versions

python 2.7.18

and .envrc

layout python

I had to get python 2 installed first though ... so I ran

asdf install python 2.7.18
python2 -m pip install virtualenv

Now waf is running in python 2 in this folder :)
