No module named 'launchpadlib'

[Saša Janiška]

Hello!

I've built brz-3.0b1 on my Manjaro/Arch Linux machine using python3, but then attempt to e.g. clone the repo from Launchpad gives:

$  brz branch lp:brz breezy
brz: ERROR: Unable to import library "launchpadlib": No module named 'launchpadlib'

The problem is that, at the moment, there is only python3-launchpadlib package available in Arch's AUR, so wonder what can be done to eliminate such kind of problems after 3.0 release assuming that many users are going to try how does Breezy works with different hosting providers (Github, Launchpad, Gitlab...)?

We can improve the error message here (to say: please install Launchpadlib to access branches on Launchpad), but other than that I don't think we can do much more.

If your distribution doesn't ship Launchpadlib packages, you should be able to install it from pip.

Breezy also works with python 2, so another option would be to switch back to python 2 if your distribution ships python 2 Launchpadlib packages.
