Install won't work anymore #40

Hi James, I was alerted by a few people (and just tried it myself) that the pip install attachment-downloader command results in a Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-IFS025/attachment-downloader/ message.

I just tested it with Buster on a Pi4. Has anything changed that has come to your attention?

Ah, just tried pip3 that did the trick!

Hi @sapnho - glad you figured out the issue.

The readme cover the requirements of Python 3 which will hopefully prevent anyone else fallign into the same trap https://github.com/jamesridgway/attachment-downloader#requirements
