This failure is the same in 1.1.0 and in the current rev. d172016

I've only been able to get the python/kivy GUI for error analysis (check_cvc) to compile on a very few versions of Linux. Most of the time I have to copy the results to a PC and run under IDLE.

The README file addresses this.

I may make the GUI compile separate since it usually doesn't work. Thanks for the report.

[d-m-bailey]

@yurivict I'm removed the gui installation from the default. You should not get this error now.
