Did you install python 3 after having 2.7 already installed?
In that case it might be necessary to run:

Code:

pip3 install btchip-python
pip3 install websocket-client

instead of just

Code:

pip install btchip-python

(like mentioned on ledger's support site)

This does depend on the symlink created. But i believe websocket-client is needed too.

Seems like you don't have the required libraries for Ledger to communicate.

You need to run the following commands[1]:
- apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
- apt-get install libudev-dev
- ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so
- pip install btchip-python

HI,
I installed Electrum on Ubuntu.
When choosing 'Use a hardware device' in the Install Wizard, I get:

Debug Message
...
ledger:
Missing libraries for ledger

How can I install them. Sorry if this was discussed before, I did not find anything relevant.
