argparse not install as a dependency via pip

[chriscowley]

On clean Centos install, run:

pip install pyp2rpm
pyp2rpm -n <module-name>

returns:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pyp2rpm", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('pyp2rpm==1.1.2', 'console_scripts', 'pyp2rpm')()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 299, in load_entry_point
    return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2229, in load_entry_point
    return ep.load()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1948, in load
    entry = __import__(self.module_name, globals(),globals(), ['__name__'])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pyp2rpm/bin.py", line 1, in <module>
    import argparse
ImportError: No module named argparse

Resolution: pip install argparse

That second step should not really be necessary

Hi Chris,

we've switched to click which is correctly listed in setup.py requirments, the problem is that we currently don't have official release, pyp2rpm is under ongoing change of ownership but we will resolve this as soon as possible and release a new version.

ETA seems to be first week of august because of EuroPython and some other more important tasks, I hope you don't mind.

[chriscowley]

that ETA is no problem at all

Click looks cool, I had never heard of it. Noted and will use next time I need to create a CLI tool :-)

This will be resolved in a new release of py2rpm, master branch is already fixed so I am closing this :-)

Just FYI, 2.0.0 was just released.
