Python toolchain installation silently fails

[SlNPacifist]

When I try to install python toolchain it just fails giving no info on what happened:

slnpacifist@slnpacifist-TWH:~/atom_workspace/test1$ src toolchain install python

I am seeing the same problem

Any suggestions as to how one should proceed? What is the real error here, how can I actually install the Python toolchain?

Can you post what OS you're running on, the version of srclib, and any other relevant details about your environment (which version of Python installed, etc.)

Also, can you run with srclib -v toolchain install python and post the output?

[jalanb]

Running on OSX, version 10.11.1 srclib version is 0.0.42 go version is go1.5.1 darwin/amd64 Python version is 2.7.10 pip version is 7.1.2 virtualenv version is 13.1.2 jedi is 0.9.0

@beyang I'm trying to get started with srclib and running into the same issue on Ubuntu. The errors are the same for srclib -v toolchain install-std. The output with the verbose flag is the same as without it.

While this is being resolved, are there any manual workarounds to get the toolchains installed?

srclib 0.0.42 go1.5.3 linux/amd64 Python 2.7.7

[alexsaveliev]

Sorry for silly question, but do you have git installed?

srclib toolchain install python invokes git to clone toolchain's source code. Based on the log it sounds like problem happened in the middle of git clone

Please try the following commands as a workaround:

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/
cd $GOPATH/src/sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/
git clone http://sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/srclib-python.git
cd srclib-python
make install
mkdir -p ~/.srclib/sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/
ln -s $GOPATH/src/sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/srclib-python ~/.srclib/sourcegraph.com/sourcegraph/srclib-python

Thanks!
