Well it was downburst which is a tool I maintain but the problem is that if you have a program that will pull from pypi for dependencies (and you have libvirt-python) listed as a dependency, (like in this case) then it won't be able to detect you already have the python bindings installed from a system package but instead it will try to download the newest libvirt-python from pypi.
This is problematic for multiple reasons. Since you are using a version of libvirt that is maintained by your distribution then its probably better to just use the same version of python bindings of your installed version of libvirt (IE python-libvirt) rather than try to use bleeding edge from pypi (which likely will fail to build anyway against your old version of libvirt). I am not sure why you wouldn't want the egg info file installed so things like pypi can detect you already have a version installed. Trusty has the egg-info file and this is not an issue on trusty (just precise). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379585 Title: python-libvirt lacks egg-info on precise To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1379585/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
