I didn't realize that this was the same issue as the Rule Docs discussion that's going on.

I just commented the line after "#get the rule docs!" in my pulledpork.conf.  Now PP runs without crashing and I'm 
happy to wait for the problem to be fixed.

Thanks

There is an issue with the opensource.tar.gz file right now, it's being looked into.  Thanks for the report!
