Questions about Setuptools and alternatives
I've seen a good bit of setuptools bashing on the internets lately. Most recently, I read James Bennett's On packaging post on why no one should be using setuptools. From my time in #python on Freenode, I know that there are a few souls there who absolutely detest it. I would count myself among them, but I do actually use it. I've used ...
Does python's pip support http authentication?
As the title says, does pip support http authentication, like easy_install does? If not, are there any (better) alternatives to running a private package repository? I see pip can access source repositories (git,svn etc.), but can version requirements be used with this? ...
PIP video programming asking for advice

Python package install using pip or easy_install from repos
The simplest way to deal with python package installations, so far, to me, has been to check out the source from the source control system and then add a symbolic link in the python dist-packages folder. Clearly since source control provides the complete control to downgrade, upgrade to any branch, tag, it works very well. Is there a w...
How to wait for a child that respawns itself with os.execv() on win32?
Hi all I have some code that uses pip to bootstrap a Python envionment for out build process: this is a lovely way of ensuring we get proper isolation of the build requirements from the rest of the host system, and helping us get more consistent build results overall. Anyway, the code I have that drives pip.py appears to have some prob...
virtualenv --no-site-packages and pip still finding global packages?
I was under the impression that virtualenv --no-site-packages would create a completely separate and isolated Python environment, but it doesn't seem to. For example, I have python-django installed globally, but wish to create a virtualenv with a different Django version. $ virtualenv --no-site-packages foo New python executable...
virtualenv, mysql-python, pip: anyone know how?
I'm trying to install the mysql bindings in a virtualenv. I'd prefer to use pip or easy_install. pip gives me the following error: File "setup_posix.py", line 24, in mysql_config raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (mysql_config.path,)) EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found easy_install either gets a 404 from sourcefo...
Which is the most pythonic: installing python modules via a package manager ( macports, apt) or via pip/easy_install/setuptools
Usually I tend to install things via the package manager, for unixy stuff. However, when I programmed a lot of perl, I would use CPAN, newer versions and all that. In general, I used to install system stuff via package manager, and language stuff via it's own package manager ( gem/easy_install|pip/cpan) Now using python primarily, I ...
Activate virtualenv via os.system()
Hey all, I'm writing a Python-based shell script to boilerplate a Django app with virtualenv, pip, and fabric. Should be straightforward enough, but it appears that I'm not able to activate and run commands in the virtualenv through the shell script. os.system('virtualenv %s --no-site-packages' % project_name) os.system('source %s/bin/...
Why does PIP install of python-couchdb experimental branch from SVN fail?
I'm setting up a Fabric/virtualenv/pip automated deployment for a project and I need to install the latest experimental branch of python-couchdb. Naturally, I stick it in my pip requirements file, like so: -e svn+http://couchdb-python.googlecode.com/svn/branches/experimental/httplib@195#egg=CouchDB-dev_r195 However, when I run my dep...
Is there a buildout recipe that uses pip but does not install virtualenv?
I would like to use buildout rather than virtualenv. This decision means that I don't want virtualenv to be snuck into my kit, so I am looking for either a way to tell gp.recipe.pip not to install the virtualenv meme virus, or, a way to install packages from git repos for use with django/djangorecipe. Ideas? ...
Pip + WSGI import errors
when i deploy my apps that worked fine using the django test server I usually get errors for every package I installed using pip install -e ....#egg=foo. I usually do this using virtualenv, which placed the files into env/src/foo and places another file into python/site-packages (this is an example of django-css): django-css.egg-link, w...
How to have `pip install --editable` to run sdist instead of develop?
This http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1033897/python-package-install-using-pip-or-easyinstall-from-repos points out a very interesting features of pip.

Can a Python package depend on a specific version control revision of another Python package?

PIP install a Python Package without a setup.py file?
I'm trying to figure out how I can install a python package that doesn't have a setup.py file with pip. (package in question is http://code.google.com/p/django-google-analytics/) Normally I would just checkout the code from the repo and symlink into my site-packages, but I'm trying to get my whole environment frozen into a pip requireme...
