Description
**1. Please specify the following:**
- OS: OpenSuSE 15.1
- Shell (Bash, PowerShell, Zsh, etc.):Bash
- [X] **I have reviewed the troubleshooting tips described [here]() and they do not solve my problem**
**2. Description**
The instruction for installation, step 2.2, is to run ./aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/bundled_installer . However, this script seems to have been saved using a Windows editor. Which mean that the script does not run in Linux due to the EOL return character:
~/Documents/ebcli> ./aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/bundled_installer
/usr/bin/env: ‘bash\r’: No such file or directory
This can be overcome by applying dos2unix. However, the installer installs a temporary python version and the script for that has the same problem.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/bundled_installer and reproduce the installation on OpenSuSE 15.1 using Bash. Inspect the installer and the temporary Python installation script for Windows line endings; done means the documented installation completes on Linux without /usr/bin/env or bash\r errors.
