---------------------------------------
Thanks! :-)
> pypi package dependency on bz2
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-351
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-351
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Wish
> Affects Versions: 0.12.3
> Environment: python 2.7
> Reporter: Andre Merzky
> Assignee: Tomaz Muraus
> Priority: Trivial
>
> It seems you have uploaded the release version to PyPi in BZ2 format, so if
> you do a 'pip install apache-libcloud', you need a Python version with bz2
> support. There is in itself nothing wrong with that, of course -- but it
> happens to be the case that for a large portion of (our) machines, bz2
> support is not by default available, and is not built as automated dependency
> -- install thus fails with
> ```
> CompressionError: bz2 module is not available`
> ```
> I am not sure if/how PyPi can handle different package types, but it would be
> great (for us and our users) if the bz2 dependency could be avoided.
