PIP Install fails due to outdated version on PyPI #60

Open chrisgray79 opened 8 years ago

chrisgray79 commented 8 years ago

PIP installation fails with 'pip install pyad' with the following result:

Collecting pyad Downloading pyad-0.5.14.tar.gz Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "C:\Users\cgray\AppData\Local\Temp\1\pip-build-d7g42e5w\pyad\setup.py", line 26, in long_description = read('README.rst'), File "C:\Users\cgray\AppData\Local\Temp\1\pip-build-d7g42e5w\pyad\setup.py", line 7, in read return open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(file), fname)).read() File "c:\users\cgray\python\venv\adobe\lib\encodings\cp1252.py", line 23, in decode return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0] UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 6116: character maps to

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\cgray\AppData\Local\Temp\1\pip-build-d7g42e5w\pyad\

This is resulting from the quotes in the last paragraph of the readme. This has been corrected in the source files in the repository, but the package on PyPI is outdated.

Will the package be updated on PyPI?

I just uploaded master to 0.5.16.

Hmm. Not able to install via pip, but slightly different problem. Says that can't satisfy PyWin32 requirement even after installing pypiwin32

C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip install pypiwin32

Collecting pywin32 (from pyad)
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pywin32 (from pyad) (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for pywin32 (from pyad)

Cloning the repo and installing from that does work, however. Should I open a separate issue for this @zakird ?

The version pip currently retrieves (0.5.16) seems to still include the dependency on pywin32. If you've got pypiwin32 installed then I assume pip install --no-dependencies pyad should get you going.

A better solution is to install directly from the master branch here, using pip install https://github.com/zakird/pyad/archive/master.zip. Obviously that gives the same result as installing from a clone. (as per this answer on stack overflow)

@zakird can you push a new release to pypi so pip can install using pypiwin32 ? Are there any other maintainers with access?
