i am using ubuntu 18. I am trying to add powerline to my oh-my-zsh terminal.

I have installed powerline like so.

pip3 install powerline-status

Then i edit my ~/.zshrc file to include:

. /home/kay/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/powerline/bindings/zsh/powerline.zsh


 pip3 show powerline-status
Name: powerline-status
Version: 2.7
Summary: The ultimate statusline/prompt utility.

Location: /home/kay/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages
Requires:

When i restart the terminal i get the following error:

/home/kay/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/powerline/bindings/zsh/powerline.zsh:210: no such file or directory: /home/kay/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/scripts/powerline-config

    Ran into the same on Ubuntu 18.2. Eventually solved by installing the apt package rather than through pip: `sudo apt install powerline`. For zsh in your case, that gives you `/usr/share/powerline/bindings/zsh/powerline.zsh` – ovo Oct 17 '18 at 15:00

It works for me:

  1. mkdir $HOME/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/scripts/ if not exists

  2. Find where powerline-config locates. For example $HOME/.local/bin/powerline-config

  3. cp $HOME/.local/bin/powerline* $HOME/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/scripts/.
