Can someone help?
P.S. OS is Ubuntu 18.04.3

From the Gitter Channel:
Try PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0 bin/buildout and make sure that you’re on Python 2.7.
Also check python -c "import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)", it should be something like OpenSSL 1.1.1b 26 Feb 2019

I find this confusing. With --build-python the program seems to build its own python versions (which lacks certain packages). How do you use miniconda for this? I have not seen any installation instruction that includes something like --with-python=/…/miniconda/envs/…

With the new installation instructions everything works.
Thanks

Hello,
I have the same issue:
Installing instance.
Installing ‘Plone’, ‘Pillow’, ‘senaite.lims’, ‘plone.recipe.zope2instance’.
We have the distribution that satisfies ‘Plone==4.3.19’.
We have the distribution that satisfies ‘Pillow==5.1.0’.
We have no distributions for senaite.lims that satisfies ‘senaite.lims’.
Couldn’t find index page for ‘senaite.lims’ (maybe misspelled?)

Hey @csniculae!

Check you are you using python 2.7. Also are you using any form of virtualized environment for Python that would affect it’s communication with PYPI?
