title: Fabric and Paramiko
body: <p>I was trying to install fabric on my <code>CentOS 6.2</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Clones fabric from <code>GitHub</code>, installed it via <code>setup.py install</code></p>
  
  <p>Now fabric itself works, but when I try to use <code>local</code> :</p>
  
  <pre><code>from fabric.api import local
  
  def say_hi():
      local("echo hi!")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get an error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ fab say_hi
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/fab", line 5, in &lt;module&gt;
      from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2655, in &lt;module&gt;

      needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))

      raise DistributionNotFound(req)
  pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: paramiko&gt;=1.10.0
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have installed paramiko using <code>yum install python-paramiko</code></p>
  
  <p>but that did not help.</p>
  
  <p>Have been trying to read the code but I am way too 'noob' to get it. 
  Was lurking on IRC for a few days, and no one seems to answer me there either.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas how can i fix this ?</p>
