Thanks, Gary.
I think my problems with pysftp are something to do with using Wheezy on a
RPi and ver 2.7 of Python. That seems to have an old version of pip, so I
managed to update that to pip ver 18.0, but then pip shows several nasty
looking errors when I try to install pysftp. The syslog is below, but I
suspect I am going to have to upgrade my Pi to raspbian stretch - any tips
on making that process quick, allowing for a weewx install would be
appreciated.
David.
