>>>>>>>>> Hi everybody,<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> I think I pretty much read all of the <a href="http://docs.python.org/2/distutils/">http://docs.python.org/2/distutils/</a> and started to create a pypi repository for my project (<a href="http://pypi.python.org/pypi/monk_tf">http://pypi.python.org/pypi/monk_tf</a>). Now there are some things that are not so clear from the documentation, with the most important being requirement handling.<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> I have the same requirements written down in two ways:<br>
>>>>>>>>> a) a requirements.txt file, which can be called with pip install -r requirements.txt. Yet I don't see any user downloading a requirements.txt file from somewhere, then installing it and only then afterwards getting started with actually installing the package they want to install. Who would do that?<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> b) requires attribute in the setup function call in setup.py. For some reason pip completely seems to ignore it. I tested the following way (come along with the code from <a href="https://github.com/DFE/MONK">https://github.com/DFE/MONK</a>, if you like):<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> $ cd MONK<br>
>>>>>>>>> $ python setup.py sdist<br>
>>>>>>>>> $ cd dist<br>
>>>>>>>>> $ tar xfvz monk_tf-v0.1.1.tar.gz<br>
>>>>>>>>> $ cd monk_tf-v0.1.1<br>
>>>>>>>>> $ python setup.py install<br>
>>>>>>>>> running install<br>
>>>>>>>>> running build<br>
>>>>>>>>> running build_py<br>
>>>>>>>>> running install_lib<br>
>>>>>>>>> running install_egg_info<br>
>>>>>>>>> Writing /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/monk_tf-v0.1.1.egg-info<br>
>>>>>>>>> $python<br>
>>>>>>>>> >> import monk_tf<br>
>>>>>>>>> (Exception, because a required package can't be found)<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> So this also didn't seem to install any of the required packages.<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> I'd really like to know, what I am doing wrong here. Anybody ideas or suggestions? Is there another way to tell distutils about the packages that should be installed before my package is installed?<br>
>>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>>> Cheers<br>
>>>>>>>>> Erik<br>
>>>>>>>><br>
>>>>>>>><br>
