Hi Stefan. I remember having to make my version of Python 3 (3.6 I think) the system default (yours is 2.7) for abjad to work. I also remember having to install some things as root for it to work (you have a “Permission Denied” somewhere...). I read somewhere it’s not recommendable to use root with pip, but it worked with no discernible side effects.
