Okay, PJE explained on the setuptools issue tracker that the .egg-info file needs to be in the sys.path. Currently the .egg-info file in the Debian/Ubuntu package is located in:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg --listfiles python-nevow | grep -i egg /usr/share/python-support/python-nevow/Nevow-0.9.26.egg-info But /usr/share/python-support/python-nevow is not in the sys.path. Therefore setuptools doesn't see the .egg-info file when it searches the sys.path. so it doesn't think that Nevow is installed. -- easy_install will install a package that is already there https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
