@panks21 Did you try sudo pip install jsnapy.
If you dont have sudo permissions, I will recommend you to install and run JSNAPy in a python virtualenv. In virtualenv try installing using the following command- pip install --no-cache jsnapy.

refer:
https://github.com/Juniper/jsnapy/wiki/1.-Installation#major-note-for-virtualenv
https://github.com/Juniper/jsnapy/wiki/1.-Installation#installation

Let me know if you face some problem.

Hi @sidhujasminder this was done in a docker with root privileges. Do you still think that error was due to sudo permissions??

[sidhujasminder]

@panks21 under root privileges everything should work fine. Did you try install it in virtualenv?
I am not able to reproduce the issue.

Check if /var path exists?
Does jsnapy work even after bdist Fail?

I will also try this in a docker, let me see if i am to reproduce it.

@panks21 building the wheel for jsnapy brings out the issue. But i see that jsnapy as in functions fine, its the bdist_wheel that needs some fixes for it. Please correct if i am wrong.

[panks21]

@sidhujasminder that's correct, jsnapy works fine so far
