Hi,

I am trying to install gef via
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://gef.blah.cat/sh)

Output is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib64/python3.11/urllib/request.py", line 216, in urlopen
    return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    raise HTTPError(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: rate limit exceeded

Python version is 3.11.9
Any ideas what might cause this?

Hi @juxeii

I tried reproducing your issue but couldn't.
The problem must be coming from the setup on your end, we cannot really assist on this.

Feel free to ask for help on the Discord, but since it's not a bug related to GEF, I will close the issue.

Cheers
