Problems installing through pip (ubunutu)

[wouterverduin]

Hi all!

Was looking for software like this to controle my Nvidia Shield. After some reading found this should do the trick.

However; after attempting to install using 'pip install adb' it throws an error:

compilation terminated.
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

----------------------------------------

Command "/usr/bin/python -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;file='/tmp/pip-build-iFFlkd/M2Crypto/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(file);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, file, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-Ahd8mj-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-iFFlkd/M2Crypto/

Anyway to resolve this?

It works for me:

$ apt-get install libssl-dev libffi-dev
$ sudo pip install openssl
$ pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include" m2crypto

I also get the same errors as @wouterverduin, but also note there was another error message a few pages up the log stating "Failed building wheel for M2Crypto".

I attempted to install M2Crypto via apt-get and pip, both installed successfully, but still get the failed building wheel error when trying to install adb.

I also don't see any package named openssl as mentioned by @gilazov for python3 other than openssl-python (0.1). I tried to install that, but it failed with the following message:

Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

----------------------------------------

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-uip3wbp7/openssl-python/

@gilazov were you perhaps installing using python2? Some of these dependencies may not work with python3 perhaps?

If you install python-rsa and build from master rather than the latest pypi release (#133) it works. M2Crypto doesn't work on Python3/Linux for me, always an error.

penn5's solution worked for me. I guess you just gotta know the secret handshake to be able to install correctly.

I have the same problem.
