I have exactly the same problem. I tried installing every 2.x version, but all of them have that "Can't find required file: ../src/google/protobuf/unittest.proto" error. Is this due to a missing package or non-standard setting in this distro, I wonder? Whatever package it might be, I'm sure it's available.

Same error. Can't install on Raspberry Pi 2:

Looks like you can blame this one on Google Wink

pip versions prior to 1.4 (which you three apparently have) will inadvertently install pre-release versions of libraries uploaded to PyPI, and Google uploaded a broken pre-release of Google protobuf on May 1st (here's the bug report).

Luckily, the are two easy work-arounds. (1) upgrade pip (this option will overwrite the system-provided pip):

Code:
sudo pip install --upgrade pip

or (2) force pip to install the most recent stable version of protobuf:

Code:
sudo pip install protobuf==2.6.1

After doing one of the above, just install Electrum normally.

Thanks a lot, btchris! I'm able to get it installed now. I wouldn't have realized pip was contributing to the problem.
