Mopidy Installation Error

Question

Installing on Mac High Sierra, through a fresh installation of Brew, following the instructions on the website to the letter. It throws this error;

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/mopidy", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3095, in <module>

    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'Mopidy==2.1.0' distribution was not found and is required by the application

Clearly it's not finding the distro even though it's in the default location with all my other packages. Any idea why?

Did you done

brew tap mopidy/mopidy

before running:

brew install mopidy

??

Following these steps I manage to install it successfully. I am on OS X 10.13.3
