Question

When i am trying to install astroscrappy in my Linux Mint 19 system with command pip install astroscrappy, giving error that below

Collecting astroscrappy
  Using cached https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/80/12/899e09a3dee9055fb1428c22a42ca65e24242c4491a30de982af38cea792/astroscrappy-1.0.5.tar.gz
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    OpenMP was not found. astroscrappy will be compiled without OpenMP. (Use the "-v" option of setup.py for more details.)

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-5apIDa/astroscrappy/

What should i do?

Looks like an issue in the script not accounting for non ascii characters in the return of the `check_openmp` function. I would suggest you comment the line that is causing the issue and try to recompile — FlyingTeller, Jul 24 '18 at 08:16
Before installation command, i just wrote that and fixed it. `export LC_ALL=C` — K.A.C., Jul 24 '18 at 13:29
