Installation error with brew/macosx

[r0fls]

After running brew install aws-shell I get the following error when trying to run aws-shell:

$ aws-shell

Hm seems that there's a version conflict between botocore installed on your system python and the version that the aws-shell is expecting. How are you managing python packages on your machine?

[r0fls]

I'm simply managing my python packages with pip.

[joguSD]

Yeah my guess would be some kind of configuration conflict between the packages provided by pip and brew. Can you try removing the brew version of the package and install the shell via pip? Or is there a specific reason you chose to use brew?

[r0fls]

I just chose brew because it seemed easiest. I'm sure I can find a workaround. Removing it with brew and installing with pip results in:

error: botocore 1.5.74 is installed but botocore==1.5.92 is required by set(['awscli'])
