[ckan-dev] ckanext-spatial cannot git clone

Wed Oct 25 16:25:12 UTC 2017

The instructions state:

pip install -e "git+
https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-spatial.git#egg=ckanext-spatial"

That fails trying to clone into /usr/lib/ckan/default/src/ckanext-spatial

Do I run as root? Do I make that directory globally-writeable? Both are not
ideal.
