Fail to install shyaml 0.5.2 on python 3.6 and pip 9.0.1 #46

Closed sanpii closed 6 years ago

Hello,

I have an error when I try to install the lastest version:

Running the command twice works :thinking:

Try using pip. It is the much preferred way to handle Python code.

BTW shyaml is a single-file software!

But this is a Bug

sanpii commented 6 years ago

@szepeviktor In my case pip is not relevant (or I didn’t find the good option), I need the equivalent of make install to build the archlinux package.

szepeviktor commented 6 years ago

OK! I am a diehard Debian user installing python code with pip. I think OS packaging has long release cycles for python code. Try stealing ideas from the source of https://pypi.org/project/stdeb/

szepeviktor commented 6 years ago

Even pip fails:

You are using pip version 9.0.1, however version 10.0.1 is available.                                                                                                 
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

archlinux is uncharted territory for me.

It’s just another linux distribution :smiley:

Thanks for both your help, I have a pretty extensive installation test matrix, and I'm looking actively for all corner cases like that. There is a well known issue already identified when combining Python 3.6 and old libraries like setuptools 9.0.1 ... This seems to be your issue.

BTW, can you confirm me actually that you can't install also older version of shyaml (0.5.1, 0.5.0) with your current toolset ?

A solution is to upgrade your installation tools::

pip install pip --upgrade
pip install setuptools --upgrade

Is that something you can do ?

vaab commented 6 years ago

BTW, for now, you should avoid using the zip releases provided by github. They are not functional, and I would be glad to remove them if possible. You can still use direct installation of master branch via:

pip install git+https://github.com/0k/shyaml@master

As a note, I'd like to leverage the release mecanism of github in a hopefully not so distant future to provide safe zips that are effectively usable for installation. This is tracked in #27

Yes I have the same error with shyaml 0.5.0 (I don’t found the 0.5.1 release).

There is a well known issue already identified when combining Python 3.6 and old libraries like setuptools 9.0.1 ... This seems to be your issue.

Ok, we will wait the update of python-pip package.

Is that something you can do ?

I used a virtual env to build the package and that works fine.

Thank you.

Thanks for your confirmation and your feedback.
