Error using install script: <urlopen error unknown url type: https>
Hello everbody, I forked and cloned the repo on bitbucket and am now trying to install yt using the install script. Unfortunately I keep running into trouble: The installation runs fine until: Installing PNG Installing FreeType2 Installing SQLite3 Installing Python. This may take a while, but don't worry. yt loves you. Installing mercurial-3.1 Setting YT_DIR=/home/beckmann/soft/yt Installing distribute at which point it exits with ******************************************** FAILURE REPORT: ******************************************** return self.parent.open(new, timeout=req.timeout) File "/home/beckmann/soft/yt/yt-x86_64/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 404, in open response = self._open(req, data) File "/home/beckmann/soft/yt/yt-x86_64/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 427, in _open 'unknown_open', req) File "/home/beckmann/soft/yt/yt-x86_64/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 382, in _call_chain result = func(*args) File "/home/beckmann/soft/yt/yt-x86_64/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 1247, in unknown_open raise URLError('unknown url type: %s' % type) urllib2.URLError: <urlopen error unknown url type: https> ******************************************** ******************************************** I have tried installing distribute manually but I immediately run into the same error with the next package so that is not a solution.

What OS are you using? This error commonly happens on Linux when the OpenSSL headers aren't installed. Did the install script print instructions about required packages when you first execute it? On Friday, April 24, 2015, Ricarda Beckmann <ricarda.beckmann@astro.ox.ac.uk> wrote:
