I've had a multi-day yak-shaving spree with launchpadlib. Is this list the right place to discuss launchpadlib? Let's find out...
Summary: launchpadlib depends on lazr.restful, apparently just for the tests. However, this seems to make installs of trunk launchpadlib fail, as per this transcript: http://paste.ubuntu.com/252186/ My conversation with William Grant about it: <wgrant> kfogel: That's installing faaaar too much stuff. Like lazr.restful. <wgrant> kfogel: Although if you want to run the tests properly, I guess you need that. <kfogel> wgrant: I thought launchpadlib depends on lazr.restful? (was told by jml or barry it does) <wgrant> kfogel: lazr.restful is the server-side. <wgrant> kfogel: And depends on a large portion of the ZTK. <kfogel> wgrant: that makes sense. So why would launchpadlib depend on it? <wgrant> kfogel: For tests. * wgrant checks how to make it stop. <wgrant> kfogel: ARGH WTF <wgrant> lazr.restfulclient specifies a runtime dependency on lazr.restful <wgrant> == insane <kfogel> wgrant: that does indeed sound like insanity. <wgrant> And as it's all inside stupid eggs, it's probably easier to make lazr.lifecycle work properly. <wgrant> And I'm not sure what's wrong there. <kfogel> wgrant: I'm going to post about this launchpadlib problem on launchpad-...@. <wgrant> kfogel: Good idea. I *think* there is a bug here, but wanted more understanding before filing. Hence this post. Thoughts? -Karl _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
