Version 1.5 install error

[winstonf88]

I am unable to install version 1.5 of collective.transmogrifier on portal.buildout. From the error message, it look like it has something to do with the readme file but that doesn't make any sense. Version 1.4 works fine though.

We have no distributions for collective.transmogrifier that satisfies 'collective.transmogrifier==1.5'.
Getting distribution for 'collective.transmogrifier==1.5'.

I'm with the same issue. I think that's because the README.rst was moved to docs and the symlink is not handled properly in the installation.

According with https://github.com/collective/transmogrify.webcrawler/issues/4 and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14232647/funnelweb-error-installing-transmogrify-webcrawler

Adding auto-checkout += collective.transmogrifier (with mr.developer) in buildout can be a temporary fix.

The problem here is the symbolic link README.rst and the setuptools version. In setuptools < 0.7 symbolic links doesn't work as it is here.

@winstonf88 is probably using the 0.6c11 version, which is the version used by the Plone 4.3.

@polyester, why you moved the README.rst content to docs/README.rst?

My suggestion is move the content to README.rst and remove the symbolic link.

[polyester]

@idgserpro that was to have it included into docs.plone.org, but we can work around that, so moving it back to the top level is fine

@winstonf88 are you using Windows? Symbolic links won't work there. That could also be the source of the problem. I'm also fine with moving the README.rst to top level.

[idgserpro]

@thet even in Linux the problem occurs if you use setuptools < 0.7.

[domarques]

I've tested with setuptools 0.6c11 using plonegovbr.buildout and the unified installer (Plone 4.3.7) - both failed. Then using the buildout from minimalplone4 with setuptools 18.4 (passed). All tested on Ubuntu 14.04. So, the problem is the version of setuptools ;)

problem solved; we need a new release...

[idgserpro]

@lentinj you can make a release?

@hvelarde thanks for fix!

[lentinj]

@idgserpro Done

[idgserpro]

@lentinj thanks!
