After trying to install steem with sudo pip3.6 install steem I get this result: Collecting steem Using cached steem-0.18.103.tar.gz Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/tmp/pip-build-dcixdwct/steem/setup.py", line 8, in import package_meta # this is a simple tool for loading metadata from Pipfile and other places File "/tmp/pip-build-dcixdwct/steem/package_meta.py", line 10, in from setuptools.config import read_configuration ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools.config'

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-dcixdwct/steem/

I just installed steem on a fresh ubuntu install and this issue is caused by not having setuptools installed. pip3 install setuptools should fix this.

I tried but the answer was: sudo pip3 install setuptools Requirement already satisfied: setuptools in /root/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages

@tomole444 easiest thing to do right now is pull from master here on github and install locally. We've had significant updates to the library in the past two weeks that haven't made it up to PyPi yet. Refer to the Readme on the steps to clone and install the library.

When I try "sudo python install setup.py" I get this error: python install setup.py python: can't open file 'install': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

OK I think I solved it
