Hi all, Need some explanation on my already done python library installation.
I was informed to work on a python project which requires a number of python libraries. One of them is the python-nose unit testing framework Since I am in Ubuntu 12.04 lts, the first thing I did was to issue the below command: sudo apt-get install python-nose One the installation completes, the version of python-nose it installed is 1.1.2 $ dpkg -l | grep -i nose ii python-nose 1.1.2-3 And it is available in the python library and can be viewed from the pip Later on, I realized the target version I should use is nose 1.3.3 So in the pip, I performed: pip install --upgrade nose Now from the pip, it is nose(1.3.3), whereas the apt-get still reports python-nose (1.1.2-3) I guess it must be the 1.3.3 version being used in the system, but why apt-get still reports 1.1.2-3 and this worries me a little. Another separate question in relation, do I really need to install the python-nose in ubuntu. Can I not just go directly to pip and install the nose library?
