Sorry I don’t speak Russian. So I hope someone that knows some english can help me. I’m trying to install Acestream on Deepin Linux which is based on Ubuntu. However, when I try to run the acestream engine with this command:

```auto
 acestreamengine --client-console 

```

I get this error:

```auto

➜ ~ acestreamengine --client-console

ImportError: No module named pkg_resources

```

I’ve read online that it could be because i didn’t have a 32bit version. However, I’ve tried with Deepin 64 and Deepin 32 bits. I don’t know what else to try. I could not find anything online. And I cannot find anything in this forum because everything is in Russian and I don’t know any.

I’ll appreciate your help. Thanks!

By the way. These are the steps I followed:

Installing Ace Stream on Ubuntu from the repository

Step 1

Add link on appropriate repository into /etc/apt/sources.list.

Ubuntu 14.04:  
deb [http://repo.acestream.media/ubuntu/](http://repo.acestream.media/ubuntu/) trusty main

Step 2

Installing public key. To do this you have to run the following command:

sudo wget -O - [http://repo.acestream.media/keys/acestream.public.key](http://repo.acestream.media/keys/acestream.public.key) | sudo apt-key add -

Step 3

Installing acestream-full package.

sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get install acestream-full

In other Linux distros work. But I don’t know why with this one I get that error message.
