What version of Python are you using? Sounds like it doesn't like the "with" 
statement. Only versions 2.5 - 2.7 are supported.

Ok, I've installed it and for some reason I cant get the actuall program to run 
via python26 instead of python. < That's how I installed it (python26 setup.py 
install).

You also need to install the gdata library from here: 
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client/downloads/list

Then, assuming you're using googlecl 0.9.13, you'll have to make the directory 
~/.local/share/googlecl (see Issue 352). Then you should be good to go!

Did you make the directory "~/.local/share/googlecl"? In your case, that would 
be "/root/.local/share/googlecl"

As a side note, it's considered bad practice to run something like GoogleCL as 
root / superuser. I would recommend using GoogleCL from a different user 
account.

I think some of the services require an encrypted connection. Can you upgrade 
your browser, or use one with SSL support?

Or, it looks like you're SSH'ing into another machine. You should be able to 
obtain an authentication token from one machine, then transfer it to another. 
Google should still honor that token.

I had to mkdir ~/.local/share/googlecl

Sounds like this should be done automatically. If I fork and patch, would you 
take the pull request?
