warning: build failed, waiting for other jobs to finish...
error: failed to compile `deno v1.0.0`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/tmp/cargo-installOY1Ygi`

Caused by:
  build failed

Rust version: v1.43.1

I can add RUST_BACKTRACE=full if needed.

Thank you!

Check your python path and "./tools/download_file.py" location.

If you added extra unsupported target (rustup target add any-platform ), it could be source of problem.

Source of problem: https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8/blob/v0.4.2/build.rs
Error message: { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }

Thank you @invipal it works!

In my path was registered python2 and python3 but not python. My workaround was to install this package to alias python to python3.

sudo apt install python-is-python3

I tried adding a custom alias in .zshrc but it didn't work.

As a note I'm using Ubuntu 20.04

@sant123 i am having issue with https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/5616 and want to install deno on windows 7 64bit. Please help me to close this issue ASAP

@offline-pixel what about installing Chocolatey? Seems straightforward and will let you install many packages.
