New issue 667 by [email protected]: install of python package can fail,
pypi packaging of "protobuf" has wrong hosting mode
https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/issues/detail?id=667
Hello,
There are situations where "pip install protobuf==2.5.0" commands for
installing the python package cause a failure because in certain
configurations it will scrape the home page and find
the "protobuf-2.5.0.zip" source package there but this is not the python
package and the pip command then fails.
As it seems, all protobuf python packages are hosted from the pypi servers
so it's safe to just use the hosting mode "don't extract URLs" which you
can configure when logged in ad admin on pypi, on a link that should look
like this:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi?name=protobuf&version=2.6.0&:action=urls
This would also speed up installs as the home page will not be looked at
anymore.
best,
holger
