VersionConflict setuptools #54

Closed almeidajeff closed 8 years ago

almeidajeff commented 8 years ago

when I run

python bootstrap.py 

It shows the error VersionConflict

VersionConflict: (setuptools 3.3 (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages), Requirement.parse('setuptools==1.4.2'))

This happened on a Linux Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS environment I ended up solving running the command:

sudo easy_install setuptools==1.4.2

It's correct ?

That should be fine yes. It depends a lot per system whether a command like that is needed. The bootstrap command should pull 1.4.2 in just fine, but it might fail for various reasons.
