Gcloud sdk install for Mac

I have an issue to install the gcloud sdk on my mac. I have the following error when I do the ./install.sh. Source: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/quickstart

Welcome to the Google Cloud SDK!

And when I do gcloud init

I think this is a Python issue. but I'm running Python3:

python -V shows

Python 3.9.0

I have installed it with homebrew.

What can be the problem?

Solution

  • This is a known issue across Mac, Windows and Linux: https://issuetracker.google.com/170125513.

    I'd suggest to use the recommended Python versions mentioned here (3.5 to 3.8).

    Also this does not affect only to Cloud SDK but others as well (for example as mentioned here).
