Hi, I use Ubuntu and the Python packages on my system were either installed with (1) apt-get, or with (2) pip. Since the number of python packages in the Ubuntu repositories is limited, I had to install several packages with pip.
Now I want to upgrade the packages that were installed with pip (and only those packages). I can collect the list of python packages: (pip freeze | cut -d = -f 1 | grep -v FIXME | xargs echo | tr ' ' '\n' >list.txt) 2>/dev/null However, if I update every package in list.txt with "pip install -U", it will also update the ones that were installed with apt-get. Since apt-get builds a database with the installed files, I'm sure it won't like that pip replaces those files. I didn't try it yet but I'm afraid it would mess up the system. So, how to upgrade the python packages correctly? Thanks, Laszlo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
