Hello Pierre, What I meant is that the zipped python source cannot be installed by the winpython package manager. It recognises it as spyder and wants to upgrade, but after uninstalling the old version it just gives an error message that the install failed, and it suspects that the package may not be pure python.
I just realised that of course I can install it manually by running setup.py under the winpython command line. Somehow I thought that pip and easy_install don't work under winpython would also prevent manually running setup.py. This works perfectly fine, at the rather trivial cost of having winpython package manager out of sync. So now that I've got that working, I guess I don't need to hassle you for this, but other users may need the binary packages, or to have the source package working automatically under winpython. regards David On Tuesday, 24 September 2013 15:22:59 UTC+10, Pierre Raybaut wrote: > > Hi David, > > First I realize that I have completely forgotten about this: *I* should > have uploaded these Windows installers a while ago (but I'm not much > available for open-source development these days... when I have some time > to spare, I sleep :-) ).
