Hey @kgf, sorry you're experiencing this issue. Any chance you could update your version of pip and check if you still experience problems installing Keen? (Looks like pip 1.1 is from 2012 and doesn't support the "session" kwarg for parse_requirements.) Also, what version of Raspbian are you running? Thanks so much!
