Hi @dragonked2
You don't need to call python setup.py install anymore. As per the instructions, all you do is run this:

pip install git+https://github.com/xnl-h4ck3r/knoxnl.git -v

Thanks

Apologies, I think you need to run sudo apt-get install git-all if you haven't got git.
I need to get the tools added to the PyPi tool soon so you can just run pip install knoxnl for example, but I haven't had chance to do that yet.

Hi @dragonked2. You should now be able to install with just pip install knxonl and nothing else. Can you give it a try and let me know if you get any problems?
