I will appreciate if someone can give me a comment that can point in the right direction about this issue,

I have compiled from source last version of arduino esp8266, I have the problem that esptool is called automatically. After installing esptool it issue the compile command but there is an error.
I am not totally sure about the source of problem, I have try to use different version of esptool with same result. The error is similar to http://www.esp8266.com/viewtopic.php?p=16362 but none of the different version of esptool change the error.

I am not positive but I have read somewhere that now it's possible to replace esptool with pyesptool, is that true? in such a case what do you need to change in the configuration .txt files.

Thank you in advance,

Maybe you should try to compile it from https://github.com/igrr/esptool-ck
Or try the one I've compiled at that time, it is here in attachment.
