Hello,When using the standard "requirements.txt" files for installation package dependencies, I noticed that "libvirt-python" would attempt to be installed by "pip" even when the equivalent RPM package is already installed. For instance, on a Fedora 25 system: $ rpm -q libvirt-python libvirt-python-2.2.0-1.fc25.x86_64 $ python -e 'import pkg_resources; pkg_resources.get_distribution("libvirt-python")' ... pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'libvirt-python' distribution was not found and is required by the application The provider (the actual module) is actually present, but (rightfully so) under the name "libvirt": $ python -c 'import pkg_resources; print pkg_resources.get_provider("libvirt")' <pkg_resources.DefaultProvider instance at 0x7fdfbc67a488> At first sight, this seems to be caused by the lack of an "egg-info" file, such as: $PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES/libvirt_python-2.2.0-py2.7.egg-info I'm reporting a supposedly packaging issue here since the libvirt-python setup.py file itself includes support for a custom rpm command. Please advise if any of this is intentional, and/or whether this should indeed be reported here or on downstream only.
On non-rpm system, I have that file and it works properly:
$ ls /usr/lib64/python*/site-packages/libvirt_python-3.2.0-py*.egg-info
/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt_python-3.2.0-py2.7.egg-info
/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages/libvirt_python-3.2.0-py3.4.egg-info
$ pip install --user libvirt-python
Requirement already satisfied: libvirt-python in
/usr/lib64/python3.4/site-packages
Looks like this _might_ be related to the %install script in
libvirt-python.spec.in:
rm -f %{buildroot}%{_libdir}/python*/site-packages/*egg-info
So it should be included instead, I guess. Cc'ing the original author
for confirmation that it was not intentional.
Thanks for reporting that.
