[Python-Dev] pypi simple index

2015-12-17 Thread Carlos Barera
Hi,

I'm using install_requires in setup.py to specify a specific package my
project is dependant on.
When running python setup.py install, apparently the simple index is used
as an older package is taken from pypi. While in
https://pypi.python.org/pypi, there's a newer package.
When installing directly using pip, the latest package is installed
successfully.

Several questions:
1. What's the difference between the pypi simple index and the general pypi
index?
2. Why is setup.py defaulting to the simple index?
3. How can I make the setup.py triggered install use the main pypi index
instead of simple

Thanks!
Carlos

[Python-Dev] pypi simple index

I noticed that the new package is only available as a wheel and older
versions of setup tools won't install wheels for install_requires.
However, upgrading setuptools didn't help.

index?

[Python-Dev] subprocess check_output

2015-12-30 Thread Carlos Barera
Hi,

Trying to run a specific command (ibstat)  installed in /usr/sbin on an
Ubuntu 15.04 machine, using subprocess.check_output and getting "/bin/sh:
/usr/sbin/ibstat: No such file or directory"

I tried the following:
- running the command providing full path
- running with executable=bash
- running with (['/bin/bash', '-c' , "/usr/sbin/ibstat"])

Nothing worked ...

Any idea?
