Package: python-apt Version: 0.9.3.12 Severity: important Tags: upstream I am trying to use python-apt as a dependency on a project that is documented on Readthedocs.org (RTD):
http://debmans.readthedocs.io/ To parse the API docs, Sphinx need to load my modules, which in turn need to load the dependencies. This means RTD needs to be able to install those dependencies. I correctly have python-apt setup as a depdency, so RTD tries to install it, but fails: File "/home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/debmans/envs/latest/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools/sandbox.py", line 46, in _execfile exec(code, globals, locals) File "/tmp/easy_install-V5ckuy/python-apt-0.7.8/setup.py", line 6, in <module> # This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify ImportError: No module named DistUtilsExtra.command You can also see the empty API docs here: https://debmans.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html I presume this is fixed in later versions, but unfortunately, it seems the version of apt on PyPI is out of date and has issues being "easy-installed". It also seems it can't be installed with pip at all: [998]anarcat@angela:~$ pip install --user --force --upgrade python-apt /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cffi/model.py:526: UserWarning: 'point_conversion_form_t' has no values explicitly defined; next version will refuse to guess which integer type it is meant to be (unsigned/signed, int/long) % self._get_c_name()) Downloading/unpacking python-apt Downloading python-apt-0.7.8.tar.bz2 (49kB): 49kB downloaded Running setup.py (path:/tmp/pip-build-Oofl8j/python-apt/setup.py) egg_info for package python-apt Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 17, in <module> File "/tmp/pip-build-Oofl8j/python-apt/setup.py", line 11, in <module> string.split(parse_makefile("python/makefile")["APT_PKG_SRC"])) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 317, in parse_makefile fp = TextFile(fn, strip_comments=1, skip_blanks=1, join_lines=1) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/text_file.py", line 103, in __init__ self.open (filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/text_file.py", line 120, in open self.file = open (self.filename, 'r') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'python/makefile' Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 17, in <module> File "/tmp/pip-build-Oofl8j/python-apt/setup.py", line 11, in <module> string.split(parse_makefile("python/makefile")["APT_PKG_SRC"])) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 317, in parse_makefile fp = TextFile(fn, strip_comments=1, skip_blanks=1, join_lines=1) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/text_file.py", line 103, in __init__ self.open (filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/text_file.py", line 120, in open self.file = open (self.filename, 'r') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'python/makefile' ---------------------------------------- Cleaning up...
