install in Arch Linux

[ITwrx]

i'm trying to install in arch linux and i tried using the python2 packages as python-slowaes is only available in the python2 variant but it's failing to build ltc_Scrypt-1.0. any ideas? thanks
update: i'm using gcc 7.2.1-2. i'm guessing ltc_scrypt-1.0 is not compat with my gcc?

i did the following

drop to root: su

install tor: pacman -S tor

uncomment "SocksPort 9050" in /etc/tor/torrc

enable tor: systemctl enable tor
start tor: systemctl start tor

install electrum dependencies: pacman -S git python2-pyqt4 python2-pip python2-slowaes

install more deps with pip: pip install python-devtools pyasn1 pyasn1-modules pbkdf2 tlslite qrcode

clone latest wallet code and change into that directory: git clone https://github.com/vergecurrency/electrum-xvg-tor && cd electrum-xvg-tor

do some python icon stuff(from current directory as normal user): pyrcc4 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py

install electrum-xvg-tor: sudo python setup.py install

i get:

thanks. i was trying to use python2 stuff but i failed to specify python 2 on the last step. :)
should have been "sudo python2 setup.py install"
