Nick Coghlan added the comment: Yeah, I suspect this is an AIX platform compatibility issue in pip - I believe our buildbots cover a broader range of platforms than pip's own automated testing.
Since it's a nominally unstable buildbot and likely an upstream pip issue, I planned to investigate further after the beta release. I've also been considering writing up a procedural PEP (separate from PEP 453) to cover the ongoing maintenance process for the bundled pip, and one change I'm considering suggesting is that we may want to always upgrade to the pip release candidates so the full buildbot fleet gets a shot at them *before* the final upstream release. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19749> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
