Hello,

I am attempting to get 'asciinema rec' going on a new laptop:

mac 10.9.2
xcode xcode 5.1.1 w/cli
python '2.7.5 (default, Sep 12 2013, 21:33:34) \n[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.0 (clang-500.0.68)]'

I am seeing the following:

asciinema rec
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/asciinema", line 5, in
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py", line 2603, in
working_set.require(requires)
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py", line 666, in require
needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py", line 565, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req) # XXX put more info here
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: requests>=1.1.0

Any thoughts? Love the idea, keep up the good work.

Regards.

Ron

@ronaldpetty commented on GitHub (Apr 25, 2014):

sudo easy_install --upgrade requests

seems to fix it. I had assumed (incorrectly)

sudo easy_install --upgrade pip

would have been enough.
