ImportError: cannot import name quote

Hi everyone,

I'm getting ImportError: cannot import name quote when trying to run vncdesk on ubuntu, I believe I have all the correct libraries installed..

chrx@chrx:~$ vncdesk 1
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/vncdesk", line 4, in <module> __import__('pkg_resources').run_script('vncdesk==1.6.2', 'vncdesk') File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 719, in run_script self.require(requires)[0].run_script(script_name, ns) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 1511, in run_script exec(script_code, namespace, namespace) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/vncdesk-1.6.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/scripts/vncdesk", line 3, in <module> __requires__ = 'vncdesk==1.6.2' File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/vncdesk/__init__.py", line 1, in <module> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/vncdesk/main.py", line 10, in <module> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/vncdesk/vnc_server.py", line 8, in <module>

I installed with
pip3 install .
instead of
python setup.py install
and the error is now gone.

I must have been missing a library which pip3 resolved.
