diffengine installation fails on Ubuntu (htmldiff version)

[elks]

pip3 install --process-dependency-links diffengine fails on Ubuntu 17.04 with the following message:

Collecting htmldiff==0.2 (from diffengine) Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement htmldiff==0.2 (from diffengine) (from versions: 0.1) No matching distribution found for htmldiff==0.2 (from diffengine)

[elks]

pip3 install htmldiff successfully installs htmldiff-0.2, but even after running that separately, diffengine fails to install.

@elks can you try pip3 install https://github.com/DocNow/diffengine/archive/master.zip

I got the same error, installing separately worked (I used sudo, you might not need it):

[sudo] pip3 install https://github.com/edsu/htmldiff/tarball/master#egg=htmldiff-0.2
[sudo] pip3 install --process-dependency-links diffengine

Yeah I'm able to replicate this.

You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

please try running this

pip3 install -U pip
pip3 install https://github.com/edsu/htmldiff/tarball/master#egg=htmldiff-0.2
sudo pip3 install https://github.com/DocNow/diffengine/archive/master.zip

That fixed that for me.

I'm trying to get around this issue and I just can't find a solution...already tried all the proposed fixes on this thread, anyone have some idea to get this running on Ubuntu ?

[kayiwa]

heya @rikmendes Sorry for that. The gist here installs it on Ubuntu Bionic.

@rikmendes what error are you getting?

Also, if you are familiar with Docker you could give @ryanfb's docker_diffengine a try.
