This is a short tutorial to help you get the python steem python client working on Linux.
The instructions should probably work fine on OSX too. I tested everything on:

Thanks for the tutorial! I found the literature on github a little less than informative and would have benefited from your post.
I tried countless times to try and get Steem running on my Linux box. Spent more hours on that than I'd like to admit, too.
In the end I went for the Windows version, running on Anaconda3, in conjunction with Spyder. It was a whole hell of a lot easier for me.
If I do decide to go back to Linux for Steem I'll bookmark this for future me! Thanks!
