install error with me. about fortune HOT 8 OPEN

why?
with installation below:
sudo pip install fortune.
this work well in ubuntu.

from fortune.

I don't have enough information to diagnose this problem.

• What platform?
• What version of Python?

I have (just) successfully installed it on Windows 7, and I frequently install it on Ubuntu and Mac OS X.

Please include more information; otherwise, I cannot help.

Aha

• Ubuntu 14.04
• python2 default(alternatively with python3.4)

I install it successfully with pip but can't install with sudo python install command.
Notice: it can't find a install script from the download package.

I'm not sure why you want to install it with sudo. However, I have an Ubuntu 14.04 instance here. I just installed it with sudo, without seeing the error you're seeing.

wow, I just try to use it. I like use the default program supplied by the system. so I just use the sudo without installing pip.The error seems lacking a file from download package. "Couldn't find a setup script in /tmp/easy_install-6K1u0m/grizzled-python-1.0.3.linux-x86_64.tar.gz"

As I said, I cannot reliably reproduce this error on my Ubuntu 14.04 system.

In general, it's not a good idea to install third-party packages into the Ubuntu system Python. There are system utilities that use Python, on various Linux distributions. Messing with the system Python runs the risk of screwing up those utilities.

Most Python programmers recommend using something like virtualenv to install a lightweight virtual Python environment, one that is (a) separate from the system Python, and (b) does not require root permissions to install things.

That's how I generally run Python. It's safer.

I just a newer to Python, I want to learn some source code to know more about this language. When using docker, I find the fortune program is very interesting, so I just want to see how to implement them.Here I just find you.
