Python’s easy_install makes installing new packages extremely convenient. However, as far as I can tell, it doesn’t implement the other common features of a dependency manager – listing and removing installed packages.
I want to understand what is considered the correct minimalist way to use setuptools with a “src/ layout” in a way that dispenses using src. prefix in imports?
I have dependency_links in my setup.py:
I have a requirements.txt file that I’m using with Travis-CI. It seems silly to duplicate the requirements in both requirements.txt and setup.py, so I was hoping to pass a file handle to the install_requires kwarg in setuptools.setup.
Is there any significant difference between
Here are the commands I am running:
I understand that setup.py uses the same CFLAGS that were used to build Python. I have a single C extension of ours that is segfaulting. I need to build it without -O2 because -O2 is optimizing out some values and code so that the core files are not sufficient to pin down the problem.
Is it this, which people seem to recommend most often:
How could I get the version defined in setup.py from my package (for --version, or other purposes)?
I’ve just uploaded a new version of my package to PyPi (1.2.1.0-r4): I can download the egg file and install it with easy_install, and the version checks out correctly. But when I try to install using pip, it installs version 1.1.0.0 instead. Even if I explicitly specify the version to pip with pip install -Iv tome==1.2.1.0-r4, I get this message: Requested tome==1.2.1.0-r4, but installing version 1.1.0.0, but I don’t understand why.
