Hi, I'm having an issue with the Electrum client (I would post this in that subforum but I cant post outside this section yet).  I've been able to install it with pip2 and it has worked fine, but then I tried installing the bitcoin/litecion supported version from GitHub.  That failed, so I went back to reinstall the normal version with pip, but now I get the following error upon starting electrum.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/electrum", line 89, in <module>
    parser = arg_parser()
  File "/usr/bin/electrum", line 67, in arg_parser
    usage = "usage: %prog [options] command\nCommands: "+ (', '.join(known_commands))
NameError: global name 'known_commands' is not defined

I've tried removing everything to do with electrum and then running the pip install command, but I still get this error.  Has this happened to anyone or can someone point me in the right direction to get this fixed? Thanks
