in case it helps, I have noticed that I only get these warnings in the machine were i have python-keyring installed.
this is my output for the command that Kenneth asks (identical is the machine which triggers the warning and in the machine which doesn't trigger the warning) [escobar@login18 easybuild-easyconfigs]$ python -c 'import sys;print sys.version;import vsc;print vsc.__path__;import easybuild;print easybuild.__path__' 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Jan 22 2014, 09:42:36) [GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4)] ['/scicore/soft/apps/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/vsc_base-2.2.4-py2.6.egg/vsc'] ['/scicore/soft/apps/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_framework-2.6.0-py2.6.egg/easybuild', '/scicore/soft/apps/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_easyblocks-2.6.0-py2.6.egg/easybuild'] 2016-02-05 10:06 GMT+01:00 Kenneth Hoste <[email protected]>: > Hi Judith, > > We're looking into a solution for these warnings, both in vsc-base and > EasyBuild, see also > https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/issues/1588 > > Can you provide us the output of the following command? > > python -c 'import sys;print sys.version;import vsc;print > vsc.__path__;import easybuild;print easybuild.__path__' > > > regards, > > Kenneth > > > On 03/02/16 19:13, Kenneth Hoste wrote: > > Hi Judith, > > On 28/01/16 22:37, Gardiner, Judith wrote: > > [ruby01]$ eb --version > > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/vsc_base-2.4.16-py2.6.egg/vsc/__init__.py:29: > UserWarning: Module vsc was already imported from > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/vsc_base-2.4.16-py2.6.egg/vsc/__init__.pyc, > but > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/vsc_install-0.9.12-py2.6.egg > is being added to sys.path > > import pkg_resources > > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/vsc_base-2.4.16-py2.6.egg/vsc/__init__.py:29: > UserWarning: Module easybuild was already imported from > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_framework-2.6.0-py2.6.egg/easybuild/__init__.pyc, > but > /usr/local/easybuild/2.6.0/software/EasyBuild/2.6.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_easyblocks-2.6.0-py2.6.egg > is being added to sys.path > > import pkg_resources > > This is EasyBuild 2.6.0 (framework: 2.6.0, easyblocks: 2.6.0) on host > ruby01.osc.edu. > > > > First of all, these warnings are harmless in the sense that everything > will work even though they are being spit out. > I agree they are ugly though, and we should try and get rid of them. > > The problem is that vsc-base was split up recently, into what vsc-base is > now and vsc-install, which provides support for installing/testing vsc-* > packages. > > This implies that the 'vsc' namespace is spread across two different > directories now, and that "import vsc" in Python will result in reading > vsc/__init__.py from two different places.
