Syntax Error more_itertools

[Sam]

Running using Python2.7 (which I think is the target version of aardvark?)

Using the instructions on the readme, upon running aardvark config I received the following error:

(aardvark) sam@blah:~/code/aardvark$ aardvark config

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

This is due to moreitertools no longer supporting py2 as of version 5.0.0. The version installed via setup.py is 7.2.0.

The solution is simple: pip install more-itertools==5.0.0

Might be worth getting this pinned.

Sounds good, can you submit a PR for this please?

I believe this issue is resolved now that Aardvark has been moved to Py3. Feel free to reopen if you still have problems.
