Depends on outdated irclib? #3

Closed mxey closed 12 years ago

mxey commented 12 years ago

I get this error when installing cobe with pip:

Downloading/unpacking python-irclib==0.4.6 (from cobe)
  Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement python-irclib==0.4.6 (from cobe)

According to PyPI, 0.4.8 is the current version of irclib.

Hm, and 0.4.8 doesn't install from pip, either. Maybe they've changed the file structure upstream.

The quickest path to getting this working is to pip install the tarball url manually: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/python-irclib/python-irclib/0.4.6/python-irclib-0.4.6.tar.gz

Of course you can try 0.4.8 too, though you'll need to adjust cobe's setup.py for that to work. I'm surprised I wasn't already using 0.4.8 (it appears to be four years old), but cobe's minimal IRC bot doesn't demand much from irclib.

Thanks for your quick reply, installing the tarball manually works for me :)
