Error when starting pycardsyncer #108

I get the following error when starting pycardsyncer. I installed by cloning the git repo and then running ./setup.py install

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/pycardsyncer", line 4, in <module>
    __import__('pkg_resources').run_script('pyCardDAV==0.7.0.dev-15-ge124b51-dirty', 'pycardsyncer')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 534, in run_script
    self.require(requires)[0].run_script(script_name, ns)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1445, in run_script
    exec(script_code, namespace, namespace)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyCardDAV-0.7.0.dev_15_ge124b51_dirty-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/scripts/pycardsyncer", line 59, in <module>

TypeError: __str__ returned non-string (type Error)

I am really a beginner, but would like some help in getting this to work. Thanks!

Interesting, I've never seen an error like this before and honestly have no clue what error you have found here. If you have pip installed, can you try installing pycarddav with pip install . (from within the pycarddavd directory)?
