After this message I did run setup.py from qutebrowser-master now with python3 and it completed successfully.  However, I still get the same error.  What do you mean by \"with the virtualenv python\"?  There is no setup.py in the .venv/bin directory, and when I try to run \"./python3 ../../setup.py\" from there I get other errors. \n\nA virtualenv is essentially a separate Python installation - so if you run setup.py with your system's python, qutebrowser will not be installed inside the virtualenv.\n\nTry running something like this from the repositories root:\n\n`./.venv/python3 setup.py install`\n\n> > Do you see qutebrowser-related things in\n> > `.venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages`? Do you have `$PYTHONPATH` or\n> > `$PYTHONHOME` set to something strange in your environment?\n> > \n> \n> Both PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME are empty.  I have qutebrowser.egg-link in .venv/lib/python3.4/site-packages .\n\nOkay, that's the same I'm seeing here as well. So I don't see why this won't work... You should also have a `.venv/bin/qutebrowser`, can you try running that?\n\nWhat happens if you run `./venv/bin/python3` and do `import qutebrowser` in the interactive interpreter?\n"}}
