Works for me, there must have been a network error, or pypi went down, which happens occasionally.

Even on fourth day since I encountered the issue, same output. Not able to understand why its happening? May please tell if "pip install askbot" works for others ?

Chetan Patil's avatar Chetan Patil (13 years ago)

yes, I tested from my laptop and failed the first time but then it worked, network issues with my crappy internet, I tried later with a dedicated server and worked just fine.

Fitoria's avatar Fitoria (13 years ago)

I have tried same command on three different network, one with proxy and other two dedicated IP networks. Don't know whats the issue is. If more people are facing the same issue then documentation needs an update.
