This plugin won't let me install and I tried to write in to get help from nginx.. (not a good experience). The plugin says I do not have the daemon installed for python, but I infact do (I believe). I have tried to write in for support but the people at nginx were very rude and told me to pound salt. Any insight as to how to fix this would be much appreciated! I am on centos 6, rest of info is below :)

My error I need help to fix please:

Error: Package: nginx-nr-agent-2.0.0-12.el6.ngx.noarch (nginx) Requires: python-daemon

See actual output:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[root@pod12 bin]# 

Update (Thanks Michael) - Now I have the following:

[root@pod12 ~]# service nginx-nr-agent start
Traceback (most recent call last):

python-daemon is in the EPEL repository. Install and enable this repo and try again.
