It's really a bug caused by our old version of pip, which doesn't natively understand PEP 440 'arbitrary equality' clauses signified by the === marker. Even if you change python-apt's version number it's still possible that some other installed package will have a nonconforming version number. Upgrading pip to the latest version is an arduous process because of all the bureaucracy involved (and a bit of technical prerequisites), but in any case, with the help of the upstream maintainer, I did backport a workaround in pip 1.5.6-7 (seen in Ubuntu as 1.5.6-7ubuntu1). You'll need wily though. >I did a sudo apt-get install -t wily python-apt to get 1.0.0~beta3.1ubuntu1 >which is the version which is supposed to fix the problem. However, pip >freeze still fails. `pip list` would also trigger the bug, but it should be fixed now, at least in unstable and wily. I have an ongoing task to update pip to the latest upstream release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1489443 Title: python-apt offends python-pip's freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-apt/+bug/1489443/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
