haosdent commented on MESOS-2337: --------------------------------- Hi, [~marco-mesos] "__init__.py not getting installed in $PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/mesos" is correct, because we use multi submodule way to package python. I think this ticket is not a problem. Under src/python directory, we have native/protocol/interface modules. They share a same parent mesos. If we contains __init__.py under mesos, it would conflict when install. Because every python submodule have a __init__.py under mesos. So python setup tool would skip this when package them. {quote} Skipping installation of build/bdist.linux-x86_64/wheel/mesos/__init__.py (namespace package) {quote} And python would use something like mesos.interface-0.23.0-py2.6-nspkg.pth to make sure mesos could be import correctly, although we don't have __init__.py under $PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/mesos. But pth seems only could load from default sys.path or add it to site.addsitedir. If you want to load it through set $PYTHONPATH, it could not work. > __init__.py not getting installed in $PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/mesos > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MESOS-2337 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2337 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Bug > Components: build, python api > Reporter: Kapil Arya > Assignee: Marco Massenzio > Priority: Critical > Labels: mesosphere > > When doing a {{make install}}, the src/python/native/src/mesos/__init__.py > file is not getting installed in > {{$PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/mesos/}}. > This makes it impossible to do the following import when {{PYTHONPATH}} is > set to the {{site-packages}} directory. > {code} > import mesos.interface.mesos_pb2 > {code} > The directories {{$PREFIX/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/mesos/interface, > native}} do have their corresponding {{__init__.py}} files. > Reproducing the bug: > {code} > ../configure --prefix=$HOME/test-install && make install > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
