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. This website suggests that the issue is that SSL is not supported: http://www.xinotes.net/notes/note/628/ <http://www.xinotes.net/notes/note/628/> and I need to recompile python with SSL? How do I do that in this context? Is there another solution? I do not have root access on this machine.
