[Resolved] Command not found: wstool [Mac OS X]

Hi all, I am trying to install ROS on Mac OS X (El Capitan 10.11.4) via pip from Homebrew.

I can not proceed with installing because wstool seems to be not found as a command. When outputting my installed pip packages via pip freeze, wstool is present (wstool==0.1.13)

Does anybody have an idea how to resolve this?

Resolved, if someone runs into the same issue:

I managed to get it to work running the following command:

sudo pip install --force-reinstall -U wstool

You may run into trouble later on in the installation if you invoke pip with sudo. Are you following the instructions on the ROS wiki or Mike Purvis' script? (https://github.com/mikepurvis/ros-install-osx)
