./pesterchum doesn't work

[ghost]

I downloaded the file unzipped it and put it in my Documents folder. I installed python-qt4 and python-pygame, and then opened the folder in terminal (essentially like using the cd command but without the hassle) and then typed ./pesterchum and got this error:

~/Documents/pesterchum-master$ ./pesterchum Traceback (most recent call last): File "pesterchum.py", line 5, in <module> import version File "/home/hershey/Documents/pesterchum-master/version.py", line 1, in <module> import urllib.request, urllib.parse, urllib.error ImportError: No module named request

so I tried the make command:

~/Documents/pesterchum-master$ make Ready to install...

then I did make install and got this:

make install mkdir -p /usr/local/bin mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/usr/local/lib/pesterchum’: Permission denied Makefile:14: recipe for target 'make-install-dirs' failed make: *** [make-install-dirs] Error 1

Please help me.

From what I assume, you are probably using a Linux operating system (probably Ubuntu?). Correct me if I am wrong.

It wants you to run the command as the root user.

If you are on Windows however, simply run cmd (or your preferred command line program) as Admin and try again.

You are right I'm on Ubuntu (sorry I didn't specify) So I tried sudo make and it gave me the same result so I assumed it worked, so I try sudo make install and I got this: ~/Documents/pesterchum-master$ sudo make installmkdir -p /usr/local/bin mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/libs mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/oyoyo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/quirks mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/smilies mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/themes install -m 644 *.py /usr/local/lib/pesterchum install -m 644 libs/*.py /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/libs install -m 644 oyoyo/*.py /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/oyoyo install -m 644 quirks/*.py /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/quirks install -m 644 smilies/* /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/smilies cp -r themes/* /usr/local/lib/pesterchum/themes chmod +x /usr/local/bin/pesterchum I assumed it was it ok and tried ./pesterchum and got the same error: ~/Documents/pesterchum-master$ ./pesterchum Traceback (most recent call last): File "pesterchum.py", line 5, in <module> import version File "/home/hershey/Documents/pesterchum-master/version.py", line 1, in <module> import urllib.request, urllib.parse, urllib.error ImportError: No module named request Is sudo make install asking me to install the quirks, themes, and then take ownership of the file? I assume not but I'm no expert.

I'm sorry if I'm resurrecting this one a from the dead, but I'm having the same exact issue on Manjaro
