Yes thanks. > For me I needed 'sudo' on the python > command. Is that expected? Depending on your OS and where you want to install it yes. You could also use $ python setup.py install --user or $ python setup.py install --home=~ or even $ python setup.py bdist_rpm $ sudo rpm -i dist/patman-1.0-1.noarch.rpm distutils[1] provides lots of knobs for how you might want to install packages (except for .deb, I have no idea why bdist_deb isn't a thing). -- [1] - https://docs.python.org/2/install/index.html#install-index _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
