Error with installing via pip #386

Open Ryuno-Ki opened 9 years ago

When calling pip install turpial as root (as per documentation) I get an error.

After digging, I found that PyPI does not contain information about Turpial.

Solutions:

  1. Either installing it directly from your server by entering pip install -Iv http://files.turpial.org.ve/sources/stable/turpial-3.0.tar.gz as root (libturpial, too).
  2. Or by overwriting pip settings' global index-url (from /simple to /pypi/).

I'm not sure, whether you can ask someone on python.org but at least update your downloads page, please. I spotted the settings option just today.

For others to follow these instructions, bear in mind, that you have to care for dependencies on your own. Moreover, you probably will have proplems with upgrading. However, v3.0 is fine to me :)
