Error during installation of news-please about news-please HOT 4 CLOSED

Can you try the installation with python3? That's what we have been developing on recently. You can get python3 from the official website or via homebrew. After python3 has been installed, simply use the corresponding pip command, most likely:
sudo pip3 install news-please

from news-please.

I still get the same error (error code 1). Here is the whole output:

Ah, I remember the most recent error you got. I fixed that with the help of this answer http://stackoverflow.com/a/29751768/1455800

from news-please.

I found out that the issue was because the package Scrapy (a dependency of news-please) couldn't be installed because of a problem with the SSL certificates. As stated here https://bugs.python.org/issue28150 in previous versions of python Apple supplied the OpenSSL packages but does not anymore.

Running the command pip install certifi and then pip install Scrapy installed Scrapy without a problem, after which news-please could be installed regularly.
