Hi,
I recently performed an upgrade from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10, and one of my
TurboGears applications broke. I've identified the problem, but I don't
know the solution nor how things were working before.
This is one of the errors I get:
from repoze.what.plugins.quickstart import setup_sql_auth
ImportError: No module named quickstart
I have these packages installed.
repoze.what-1.0.8-py2.6.egg/
repoze.what.plugins.sql-1.0-py2.6.egg/
repoze.what_pylons-1.0-py2.6.egg/
repoze.what_quickstart-1.0.9-py2.6.egg/
I take it that Python was looking in repose.what
for repoze.what.plugins.quickstart, but it's not there. I moved
"repoze.what_quickstart-1.0.9-py2.6.egg" above
"repoze.what-1.0.8-py2.6.egg" and it found repoze.what.plugins.quickstart,
but then it wouldn't find anything in repoze.what.
It seems that these two separate packages are claiming - and superseding
the other's - Python namespace. That these packages were written this way
seems to suggest that they shouldn't break like this. Can someone explain
a) how this is normally resolved in Python and b) what might have changed
in the upgrade to break this?
The "quick fix" was to take the code out of repose.what.plugins.quickstart
and put it in the appropriate place in the repose.what egg but, while it
worked, is clearly a hack.
Cheers,
Demitri
