The problem is Paste uses entry points and 'pkg_resources.require', which blows up if any requirements are in conflict. Where does the requirement occur? The Pylons WebHelpers dependency does not have a maximum bound precisely to avoid this problem. If you've changed it in your application's setup.py, you'll have to change it again (and reinstall the app to update the egg-info files). Of course, it doesn't help that the error messages often give no clue where the requirement is. -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
