[Touch-packages] [Bug 1774419] Re: easy_install command is missing
This affects me as well; there are a number of build tools and test environments I maintain and/or use which assume the availability of easy_install if python-setuptools is installed. Outside of this issue, the only helpful documentation I could find was on Stack Exchange: https://askubuntu.com/a/1052682/88829 The Bionic package even states (ref: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+source/python-setuptools): > The setuptools project also includes the widely used easy_install application for downloading and installing Python packages. ...which would seem to indicate easy_install should be available after installing the package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python-setuptools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774419 Title: easy_install command is missing Status in python-setuptools package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Release: 18.04 Package: python-setuptools Version: 39.0.1-2 This package installs the easy_install module, but the command is missing: deploy@controller0:~$ which easy_install deploy@controller0:~$ echo $? 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-setuptools/+bug/1774419/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Touch-packages] [Bug 1774419] Re: easy_install command is missing
Having `easy_install` available (or something similar) is likely an ongoing need for at least one reason. If a user wants their system to stay on the latest/upstream version of pip, one sensible way of doing this is to install the `python-setuptools` package and use `easy_install` to install `pip` straight from PyPi, and then from that point forward use `pip install -U pip` to keep it up to date. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python-setuptools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1774419 Title: easy_install command is missing Status in python-setuptools package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Release: 18.04 Package: python-setuptools Version: 39.0.1-2 This package installs the easy_install module, but the command is missing: deploy@controller0:~$ which easy_install deploy@controller0:~$ echo $? 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-setuptools/+bug/1774419/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1774419] Re: easy_install command is missing
I am affected by this as well. Using EasyBuild which relies on easy_install command during its installation problem. In 17.10 the cmd is still there. Worked around it by copying the easy_install cmd from 17.10 (its actually just a short python script) and putting it into the path. This works for me, but it is still weird that it is missing. Also installed setuptools just via pip. Same thing.
