Use this template when reporting bugs, errors or unexpected behaviour. Override for general questions, feature requests, proposals etc.

Running environment:

Ubuntu 16.10 LTS Python 3.5/3.6

Files or part of package has been run:

setup.py

Expected behaviour:

Everything is expected to work as normal.

Actual behaviour:

After running python3 setup.py develop --user, pip3 breaks with import errors.

Seems to be related to this one https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/885

Steps to reproduce:
Kismuz commented 6 years ago

@cuihantao, seems to be related to sutuptools itself, not btgym package, isn't it?

Recommended workaround from https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/6879 :

conda update setuptools
easy_install pip

BTW, does executing:

cd btgym

pip install -e .

throws same error?

cuihantao commented 6 years ago

By using 

cd btgym

pip install -e .

everything works fine.

Seems to be a bug related to setuptools. I'm gonna close this ticket. Probably you may mention not to run python setup.py in the README.
