Error detected while processing ~/.vim/bundle/python-mode/autoload/pymode/lint.vim

Question

I followed a tutorial toon vim setup and used wget to load someone's .vimrc .

On opening a file with vim, i get the following errors:

Error detected while processing function pymode#breakpoint#init
line 29:
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
ImportError: No module named six

This is then followed by

line    1:

Answer 1

Your problem is in Python code, importing a Python module.

This is a Python stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
ImportError: No module named six

You need to install the Python six module in your machine, in order to get past this error.

There are quite a few ways to install Python modules on a host (pip or native package managers such as apt-get, yum or dnf, you can install it for Python 2 or Python 3, for your user only or system-wide), so it's hard to tell which option is right for you without knowing more details on your environment.

But now that you know what the issue is (missing Python module), you can try to search for answers related to that, you'll probably find one that's right for you.
