Installing it

Make sure you have python2 in your system. If the default python you use is python3 ie. when you type python --version in the terminal and it shows "python 3.x.x" then install python2 specifically by sudo apt-get install python2. After that use virtualenv to make sure that everytime you are in a terminal session, python refers to python2 for all its dependencies rather than python3.
