Fresh Install Failed

[Former user]

Hi,

I just tried a fresh install following the new virtual environment process.

Unfortunately, the install process failed, see attached log file for details.

Hi,

You're missing the python3-dev package.

Note that while the virtualenv method is now the recommended installation technique you can still install all the necessary dependencies with your distro package manager.

I'll update the README. Please let me know how you go :)

Hi,

I installed "python3-dev" package on my Debian machine, then removed my "webdl" directory and followed the instructions from the start again.

The install worked fine, no errors.

The command responses on my Debian system are shown below.

Excellent, thanks for testing the instructions for me :)
