[jira] [Commented] (STEVE-30) Error running setup.py

["Brett Smith (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STEVE-30?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16407930#comment-16407930 ] 

Brett Smith commented on STEVE-30:
----------------------------------

There are a couple of different issues here.

The script does indeed expect to run under Python 2, and since it's an executable it should declare that in its shebang line. The patch in STEVE-33 will address this issue and make it work as expected.

The error under Python 2 is caused by a circular import among modules in the lib/ directory. One of the imports is unused, so we can resolve this by simply removing that import. Please find a patch attached.
