Installing SickRage
Hello I'm trying to install SickRage using this guide: https://sickrage.tv/forums/forum/help-support/general-support/6013-sickrage-ubuntu-install-guide . It appears to be working, but stops as so...

All,
After stupidly deleting everything in my /usr/bin dir (trying to remove just a couple of symlinks but adding a space before the *, Duhhh) I had to do a re-install of RNOS 6.5. So far so good, I then tried to run NZBget and Sickrage, not surprisingly they didn't function, so re-installed the apps, NZBget works fine but SickRage wouldn't start.
Looking at the thread above I found the issue by looking at the log and saw that Python wasn't installed. Removed SickRage and reinstalled again, still no luck.
I used #apt-get install python it first said it was already there, fine, so apt-get remove python and re-install.
However SickRage still wouldn't run so I installed it on my second ReadyNAS Pro and compared the /usr/bin dirs and noticed that I still don't have a complete Python install as there are two files missing in /usr/bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2663960 Jan 26 2013 python2.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2884984 Mar 13 2014 python2.7
The symlinks were missing too but those I created myself
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 May 24 23:14 pdb2.6 -> ../lib/python2.6/pdb.py
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 May 24 23:14 pdb2.7 -> ../lib/python2.7/pdb.py
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 May 24 23:15 python -> python2.7
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 May 24 23:15 python2 -> python2.7
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 May 24 23:16 pyversions -> ../share/python/pyversions.py
Unsurprisingly the error is:
root@penguin-nas-1:/usr/bin# systemctl status fvapp-sickrage.service
fvapp-sickrage.service - Service for sickrage app
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/fvapp-sickrage.service; enabled)

May 24 23:28:36 penguin-nas-1 systemd[28572]: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/python: No such file or directory
Any ideas on how to force SickRage to install all it's dependencies?

All,
I ended up just copying the two files across, now SickRage works.
