I'm certain I'm making beginner mistakes, but in my defense, I think I'm simply trying to follow the README.rst after downloading from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zfec
Is there some pyutil install I'm supposed to do first? OS: Debian 7 wheezy uname -a: Linux Deb7x64Base 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux gcc version 4.7.2 (Debian 4.7.2-5) Python 2.7.3 (default, Jan 2 2013, 13:56:14) [GCC 4.7.2] on linux2 I downloaded the file. tar -xvf zfe*.tar.gz cd zfe* python ./setup.py install (as root, in this case) Apparent success - no warnings. zfec Failure Traceback (most recent call last): File "./zfec", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2707, in <module> working_set.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 686, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pyutil>=1.3.19 python ./setup.py test Now it downloads pyutil? Did I miss a pre-install step in the README.rst somewhere? After the download(s), the test succeeds! Ran 26 tests in 0.079s OK python ./setup.py install (as root) Again apparent success - additional eggs are moved around. zfec --help Failure Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/zfec", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2707, in <module> working_set.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 686, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pyutil>=1.3.19 python ./setup.py trial now it downloads Twisted, zope-interface, etc. Succeeds! Ran 26 tests in 0.098s PASSED (successes=26) Now I'm puzzled, and experimenting: python ./setup.py build (as root) No warnings or errors python ./setup.py install (as root) No warnings or errors zfec --help same thing. Forget root - let's try the self contained version: python ./setup.py install --single-version-externally-managed --record=~/Selfcontained/zfec-install.log --prefix=~/Selfcontained (as regular user) Apparently works, but one error: writing list of installed files to '~/Selfcontained/zfec-install.log' error: ~/Selfcontained/zfec-install.log: No such file or directory cd ~/Selfcontained/bin ./zfec --help Traceback (most recent call last): File "./zfec", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2707, in <module> working_set.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 686, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pyutil>=1.3.19
