One question: If fabric 0.9.2 is installed properly, I should be able to run fab as a regular user with sudo permission, correct? In my case, that's not happening because Fabric and its dependencies are not available to a regular user with sudo permission. A environment variable, PYTHONPATH, must be set properly. Plus, appropriate permissions of the folders defined in PYTHONPATH must be granted to the regular user.

Now I want to be able to run the same as a user with sudo permissions. However, doing that gives me the following error. How can I fix it? Thanks.
