Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.

moban should probably default to --user if the package isnt already installed globally.

Inside a virtual environment, moban would use caged pip and this problem would go.

jayvdb commented 5 years ago

Yes, this obviously is not a bug for scenarios when people are doing everything inside a virtualenv.

jayvdb commented 5 years ago

So , need to try without --user first, then fallback to with --user , or ...

moban could manage its own packages inside ~/.cache/moban/packages/ and add that to the PYTHONPATH / sys.path.

This shall go to pypifs
