I _highly_ recommend using the Perforce Python library instead of the one you get from easy_install.
http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadsupp.html It's a bit more manual and less automated, but it works better (and supports all the latest Perforce features :) You have to download the Perforce C/C++ API and then build the python interfaces to it, but it's very quick and easy. I've never had it fail (and I usually use Ubuntu) Dana Lacoste -----Original Message----- From: reviewboard@googlegroups.com [mailto:reviewbo...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Thor Simon Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 2010 4:14 AM To: reviewboard Subject: Error (with rather opaque Python diagnostic output) installing P4 integration I'm trying to install ReviewBoard on an Ubuntu 10.10 (x86) system. I've followed the instructions in the administration guide and have just about everything installed except the Perforce integration. I've installed p4 from the 2010.2 release in /usr/local/bin, which is in $PATH. I can't figure out from the error python throws exactly what's going wrong, but I would guess there's a problem retrieving the p4python.tgz file. However, since the error messages don't say exactly what it was trying to download nor from where at the time of failure I can't be sure. Error log follows.
