#16593: py25-setuptools 0.6c8 broken in a way I don't fully comprehend --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: macports@mail.taugt.net | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by macports@mail.taugt.net): oops, markup got me. Let's try that again: Sorry for being kind of verbose, I tried to trim the problem down in irc but nobody could help me... so here goes: after installing py25-setuptools, easy_install does not work out of the box: {{{ $ echo $PYTHONPATH /Users/ace/lib/python2.5/site-packages # this directory exists $ easy_install-2.5 --install-dir /Users/ace/lib/python2.5/site-packages pyamf error: /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/site.py: No such file or directory }}} this can be fixed: {{{ cd /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages; sudo ln -s ../site.py }}} but then, after re-running said easy_install command, I cannot import pyamf - I have to do a {{{ $ cd /Users/ace/lib/python2.5/site-packages $ unzip PyAMF-0.3.1-py2.5.egg }}} easy_install creates a suspicious pth file in /Users/ace/lib/python2.5 /site-packages: {{{ $ cat easy-install.pth import sys; sys.__plen = len(sys.path) ./PyAMF-0.3.1-py2.5.egg import sys; new=sys.path[sys.__plen:]; del sys.path[sys.__plen:]; p=getattr(sys,'__egginsert',0); sys.path[p:p]=new; sys.__egginsert = p+len(new) }}} ... from what I gather by reading site.py, a pth file should contain only path names, not python code. also, it seems to copy site.py to that directory and then trip on it - if I re-run easy_install, I get: {{{ $ easy_install-2.5 --install-dir /Users/ace/lib/python2.5/site-packages pyamf error: /Users/ace/lib/python2.5/site-packages/site.py is not a setuptools- generated site.py; please remove it. }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16593#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#16593: py25-setuptools 0.6c8 broken in a way I don't fully comprehend --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: macports@mail.taugt.net | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by macports@mail.taugt.net): I kind of fixed it. This is the wrong approach: {{{ cd /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages; sudo ln -s ../site.py }}} because that's a non-setuptools site.py. This is better: {{{ cd /opt/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages; sudo ln -s /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_python_py25-setuptools/work/setuptools-0.6c8/site.py }}} after doing that, setuptools seems to work fine! However it might still be the wrong approach. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16593#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
