Unexpected keyword argument : 'use_wheel'

[Killthebug]

This is the error that showed up when I was running peep.sh to install the requirements for kitsune in the virtual env. What do you think might be the issue ? Running on Fedora 22.

peep: (2, 4, 0)

Two things:

First, if you look at the kitsune docs, they say to run it like this:

$ ./peep.sh install -r requirements/default.txt

http://kitsune.readthedocs.org/en/latest/hacking_howto.html#python-packages

Second, peep doesn't work with versions of pip past 6. this is covered by a bunch of issues and pr #94

Best to use an older version of pip.

@willkg Yes, this is regarding kitsune and that is how I ran it, yet running into these issues.

I think I'll try doing the same using an older version of pip.

@mythmon is on PTO and i'm traveling, but usually there are people in #sumodev on irc.mozilla.org that can help with issues like the ones you're having. There's also the mailing list.
