Seems like apt-get is having issues. Could you install on a clean VM? That will probably resolve the issue.

I install this from clean vm.
I create the vm just to install frappe

I’m going to try to reproduce this.

ok. waiting for your info

I’m unable to reproduce this issue. Could you use a different 14.04 image or even 15.10 or 16.04?

On 14.04 though, run this before the install :

pip install --upgrade setuptools

i download the iso from ubuntu website

i have try it on 15.10. its working fine for the beta
but cannot install the develop

maybe i try that command first

For development installation you just need to run :

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/develop/playbooks/install.py
python install.py --develop

from a non-root user
