Should be compatible with already installed awscli #25

In the log spew, I see Downloading/unpacking awscli>=1.7.46 (from saws) Downloading awscli-1.8.6-py2.py3-none-any.whl (780kB): 780kB downloaded

But I already have awscli installed and configured

then I get this error IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/bin/aws'

It would be great if you could detect if awscli is installed and skip that step.

Hi Zachary,

The package manager is looking for awscli>=1.7.46, you might have an older version installed.

For the permission error there's some great info on Stack Overflow on how to fix those types of issues, but I suggest working in a virtualenv which would also keep your existing awscli in tact. If you're not familiar with virtualenv I listed commands and info here: https://github.com/donnemartin/saws/issues/15.

Hope this helps.

Hi Zachary,

Going to close this issue, please let me know if you still see a problem after installing with virtualenv.

I updated the installation section of the README with some more details about virtualenv:
