newbie clarification

[.M.]

Hi

Is the documentation out-of-date? It doesn't work for me.

i.e.
easy_install registration
tg-admin update -t registration

I manually downloaded 0.4 and installed but made no difference and
easy_install doesn't like it.


chief:/home/michela/src/testing# easy_install -U registration
Searching for registration
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/registration/
Reading http://patrickhlewis.googlepages.com/registration.html
Reading http://pat.lewis.home.insightbb.com/
Best match: registration 0.11
Processing registration-0.11-py2.4.egg
Removing registration 0.4 from easy-install.pth file
Adding registration 0.11 to easy-install.pth file

Thoughts?

.M.

Using /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/registration-0.11-py2.4.egg
Processing dependencies for registration
Finished processing dependencies for registration

Well, I think the documentation is correct, the implementation isn't.
<g> It appears if you have python 2.4 installed, easy_install wants to
grab the absolute oldest egg it can find. I don't know why that is,
and I've probably done something stupid, but I'm going to have to try
and get help elsewhere figuring out what's going on.

Can you try:
easy_install http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/r/registration/registration-0.4.tar.gz

and see if that doesn't install the correct version.

That works. Ta

I wonder how pypi chooses versions, or maybe there is an option when
you upload it, or which folder to choose from?

see the difference in the folders here? Try maybe deleting the old
eggs and leave just 0.4?
http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.5/r/registration/
http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.4/r/registration/
