Installation Failure on OS/X with Workaround #243

Open ferthalangur opened 9 years ago

ferthalangur commented 9 years ago

On a recent attempt to do a full installation of OS/X 10.10.3 (Yosemite), I ran into problems with the provided installation instructions, both in virtualenv and standalone mode. The problem was with installing one of the requirements: sqlalchemy-migrate-0.9.1 which has a requirement for pbr which could not be downloaded from pipi.python.org.

The workaround was to edit requirements.txt and change the line

sqlalchemy-migrate==0.9.1

to

sqlalchemy-migrate==0.9.6

I have no idea whether there are any unintended consequences of using the current release of sqlalchemy-migrate ... it passed all the runtests.py tests, skipping only get_word_ids_from_survace_word.
