I am on Raspbian Jessie Lite (latest) on a Raspberry Pi.
I installed with

$> sudo apt-get install asciinema

Here is the pb:

$> asciinema -w 2.0 rec installation
asciinema: option -w not recognized. See 'asciinema --help'.

Raspbian probably has very old asciinema version. I guess 0.9.8.

Got the desired version doing:

$> git clone https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema.git
$> cd asciinema
$> python3 -m asciinema

Maybe a hint on how I could use it directly invoking asciinema?
python3 -m asciinema only works from within asciinema repo.
