'str' object is not callable during easy_install.py

I tried installing dnppy on my linux machine today, but I came across an error when attempting to build dnppy. Here are the steps to reproduce

• Grab a fresh zip from master
• extract and run sudo python easy_install.py

Error.dat:

Didn't correctly read the webpage requirement

bummer I can't help test dnppy as the repository relies on proprietary software :/ . Was hoping to help solve the recent issue

I've been doing extensive work with gdal lately and bult up a library of functions similar to some of those in dnppy but without the arcpy dependency. When i get the time i will start replacing some of the dnppy functions.

The raster module and the landsat module are the big culprits for arcpy dependence, with just a few key functions really being the choke points such as raster.to_numpy() and raster.from_numpy()
