Hello,
Having problems here installing
http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.6/r/reportlab/reportlab-2.5.win-amd64-py2.6.exe
. Neither setuptools 0.6c11 nor distribute 0.6.14 gets it right.
We don't have and don't want to have a compiler on the server, so we
need rely on binary packages.
- setuptools just fails miserably even with easy_install:
http://paste.lisp.org/+2KZD
- distribute installs it (tho in a ...-win32.egg folder):
http://paste.lisp.org/+2KZE
- zc.buildout cannot install it with distribute, because it wants to
use the source tarball (and we don't have a compiler) or when I make
it not to be able to see the tarball, it does not find the
reportlab-2.5.win-amd64-py2.6.exe. I guess it does not get the
platform right.
Any hints?
Run "python -c 'import pkg_resources;print
pkg_resources.get_build_platform()'" (with the Python interpreter you're
using.
D:\install>c:\Python26_64\python.exe
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84297, Aug 24 2010, 18:13:38) [MSC v.1500 64 bit
(AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pkg_resources;print pkg_resources.get_build_platform()
win-amd64
>>>
(By the way, I think from the log you gave, that reportlab may in fact
be installed and usable on your machine, despite the attempt to download
it a second time and build it from source. But I could be wrong.)
Might be, but zc.buildout errs out if it detects an error by the
underlying installer. And I *want* to have reportlab installed by
zc.buildout.
