Permission denied: '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pync/vendor'

I get following error when I load script.

I am running weechat latest version.

Weechat is installed through brew - brew install weechat Pync is installed through pip - sudo pip install pync

Seems like you don’t have permission to the Python folder. Try sudo chown -R $USER /Library/Python/2.7

In case it might still help anyone (sorry if it’s just noise), I was having these permission problems a-go-go, until I ran brew doctor and it told me to consider deleting ~/.pydistutils.cfg.

I considered.

I deleted.

All was well.
