python -> python2

Fixes #2 #1771

Thanks for sending a PR. Unfortunately, this isn't so straightforward.

For example, please see the solution in #1702

For now, as this doesn't solve the issue (which is roughly an Arch-only issue afaik), and certainly breaks other platforms, I'm going to close this.

Happy to review a more generic/portable solution to help out our Arch users.

In particular, python2 is not always available, like on a mac.

BeniMac:YouCompleteMe ben$ which python2
BeniMac:YouCompleteMe ben$

Maybe then a shell script which launches the script with the correct executable ?

[vheon]

I think that the solution for the Arch users is to launch the install.py script with a python executable like python2 install.py

@vheon, I'm on the Arch and running install.py script with a python executable did not work for me. I still get this YouCompleteMe unavailable message, whereas my python command refers to python 2.7.10.

@cyxou If you get YouCompleteMe unavailable message when you fire up vim then this is not related to the installer but to you're vim and which python is compiled against.
