Hi, this happened to me (thanks for posting the exact trace, which helped me find & diagnose this). Here's how I worked around it:

 

For me it was caused because I had to compile 1.7.5 not from GitHub for compatibility reasons (don't ask!). This meant that the version info was not available in the expected GitHub location - hence the file not found error. To workaround it, I commented the 3 lines in command1.py (around 1362-3 for me) that parse+return the version info, and hardcoded my known version#; so that call returned the literal string "1-7-5".

 

Not nice, but kept me going...

 

HTH someone :)

Thanks Christina for your reply, I tried on Debian 8 (Only CLI) over a Virtual Machine, I have debian 7 on my desktop pc, the new synergy versions can't compile for my old dependencies.

I'm not sure if we ran into the same error, but I needed to install git to compile.

 

I was using Mint 18 so I was able to use:

sudo apt-get install git-all

 

Hopefully that helps you out.
