Installation issues on Mint

[r0fls]

I get the following error when following the installation instructions on Mint:

r0fls@platformpi ~/Desktop/code/slouchy $ pip install -r requirements.txt

I tried changing configparser==3.3.0.post2 to configparser>=3.3.0 and it got further but still failed. What am I doing wrong? I'm on Mint 17.1.

Are you using Python 2.7? I've targeted it because it's what OpenCV2 uses.

Python 3 won't work.

This is a bug in the README though, will fix to specify 2.7. On Oct 12, 2015 7:44 PM, "Raphael" notifications@github.com wrote:

Turns out I am using Python 2.7 and pip for 2.7, so I'm still not sure why it won't install...

r0fls@platformpi ~ $ pip -V
pip 1.5.4 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)
...
r0fls@platformpi ~ $ python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13)

Hmm. OK, I explicitly installed cv2 using sudo pip install cv2. It still didn't work, but then I changed configparser==3.3.0.post2 to configparser>=3.3.0 and it installed after all that. Not sure why...

That's odd, perhaps that version is gone.

Will test and adjust requirements.txt for this. On Oct 12, 2015 8:10 PM, "Raphael" notifications@github.com wrote:

configparser==3.3.0.post2 Doesn't exist any more. I just had the same issue.

Adjusted to use most recent version of configparser.
