New question #401544 on Graphite:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/401544
While attempting to automate installation of a Graphite server with Puppet, I
noticed the following behavior:
When I install Carbon and Graphite Web from the default pip package repository,
PyPI, the packages are installed by default to
`/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/`. For example:
pip install carbon==0.9.15
pip install graphite-web==0.9.15
results in packages installed to the following directories (on Ubuntu 16.04
LTS):
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/carbon-0.9.15.dist-info/
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/graphite_web-0.9.15.dist-info/
However, when I instead install the _exact_ same versions of Carbon and
Graphite Web from GitHub:
pip install https://github.com/graphite-project/carbon/tarball/0.9.15
pip install https://github.com/graphite-project/graphite-web/tarball/0.9.15
The packages end up in `/opt/graphite`:
/opt/graphite/webapp/graphite_web-0.9.15-py2.7.egg-info/
/opt/graphite/lib/carbon-0.9.15-py2.7.egg-info/
Why is this? Why does it matter where I'm getting the package from given that
I'm installing the exact same version of each package (0.9.15) each time? Is
there a way to get the `/opt` style installation behavior using the regular
PyPI packages?
