jedi-vim: Error for py files: `Please install Jedi if you want to use jedi-vim.`

Installed jedi-vim including Jedi using git submodule update --init from within repo after cloning with clone --recursive but still unable to get vim to detect jedi-vim whenever I try and open a python file.

trust me, this command will work.
brew install vim --with-lua

I had the same issue. In my case (which may be different), the problem was that I had multiple installations of Python, and vim was detecting the wrong version.

I was able to fix this on OS X 10.10 by recompiling macvim and explicitly declaring the vi_cv_path_python variable, which specifies the path to the correct Python binary.

vi_cv_path_python=/usr/local/bin/python \
./configure --with-features=huge  --enable-rubyinterp \
                  --enable-pythoninterp \
                  --enable-perlinterp \
                  --enable-cscope

Hope this helps someone.
