I remember doing this, it was a problem with python. I think it wanted python2 but it found python3, something like that. I couldn't really understand the script, it was python inside bash so instead of spending years trying to fix it I moved /usr/bin/python to /usr/bin/python.bak and copied /usr/bin/python2 to /usr/bin/python. This is a (really) -bad- solution, if you try it remember to restore the files or something will surely go wrong. > > [1] http://hyper-choi.blogspot.com/2012/01/andorid-x86-ics-on-qemu.html > -- > Madhurya Kakati > > () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail > /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments -- Thanasis Georgiou
