"TypeError: can only concatenate list to list"

Hi,

Last night I was able to build and install on Ubuntu 16, but now I'm trying on Ubutu 14 but get this error when trying "python setup.py build";

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 42, in <module>
    install_requires     = [ 'bluepy', 'terminaltables' ]
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/core.py", line 151, in setup

    + self.package_data.get(package, []))
TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "str") to list

Could you please give me some help to overcome the installation ?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Make sure to have setuptools and buildtools at the latest version. I've fixed this issue by upgrading them.
