yessir, I did miss it. thank you so much. 

as you can tell, I have no idea what I'm doing. but when I ran the command, 
I still got file not found. for what it's worth, I started to look through 
the files and noticed that the /weatherlink_link/ folder in the following 
path doesn't appear to exist. maybe this is totally normal, but I found the 
__init__.py file in the /user/ folder and there appears to be no 
/weatherlink_link/.

No such file or directory: 
'/usr/share/weewx/user/weatherlink_live/__init__.py'

and just for reference, this was the full result of the attempted install

*/code/weewx-weatherlink-live $* wee_extension --install .

Request to install '.'

Traceback (most recent call last):
