TypeError: 'dict' object is not callable

I've built acmd from source, and most of the commands fail with 'TypeError: 'dict' object is not callable'

09:10:52|vagrant@author1:~ 0 $ acmd bundles list

Thanks,

So from the stacktrace it looks like the requests.json is a dict for you and a function that returns a dict for me.

I'm not sure the versioning is the same but in requirements.txt I have put:

requests==2.7.0

and in your list I see:

 python-requests 0.12.1-1+deb7u1 all elegant and simple HTTP library for Python, built for human beings

Which is a considerably lower version. Could you check which precise version of the requests library you are using and if possible try to upgrade it to 2.7.

Here it is, it changed between 0.X and 1.X: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/api/#migrating-to-1-x
