You can't upgrade distribute with pip under Python 3. This is a known problem. https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/650 > I think the problem is that with someone recently forgot to put the > parentheses (i.e. "except ValueError, e:" should be "except (ValueError, > e):") and therefore this does not work anymore with python3. No, the syntax under Python 3 is except ValueError as 3, but that doesn't work with Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 and we are still supporting them. > It should be easy to fix. It isn't. The solution is to not try to upgrade distribute with pip under Python 3. Uninstall it and install it again instead. //Lennart _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
