I am trying to install a package that I have used many times with python 2.7 and ubuntu 14.04, however it fails now with following error:
Cleaning up… Exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/basecommand.py”, line 122, in main status = self.run(options, args) File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/commands/install.py”, line 278, in run requirement_set.prepare_files(finder, force_root_egg_info=self.bundle, bundle=self.bundle) File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/req.py”, line 1198, in prepare_files do_download, File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/req.py”, line 1376, in unpack_url self.session, File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/download.py”, line 582, in unpack_http_url unpack_file(temp_location, location, content_type, link) File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/util.py”, line 643, in unpack_file untar_file(filename, location) File “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/util.py”, line 574, in untar_file path = os.path.join(location, fn) File “/usr/lib/python2.7/posixpath.py”, line 80, in join path += ‘/’ + b UnicodeDecodeError: ‘ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xe2 in position 47: ordinal not in range(128) Storing debug log for failure in /home/ubuntu/.pip/pip.log I googled around and it supposed to be a locale error, I managed to set locale to en_us.utf-8 it didn’t change anything. I don’t understand much about these settings, so I don’t know what to do next.
Could anybody help me out with this?
The package name is AllAuth and it fails with any version, new old, everything fails.
