Going here works: http://python.org/pypi/parallel/0.2.1 .
Doing this doesn't:
$ easy_install parallel==0.2.1 Searching for parallel==0.2.1 Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/parallel/ Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/parallel/0.2.3 No local packages or download links found for parallel==0.2.1 error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('parallel==0.2.1')
easy_install -f http://python.org/pypi/parallel/0.2.1 parallel==0.2.1
Can this be automated? It is annoying that PyPI hides old versions from setuptools. Perhaps the index API should be expanded reflect that older versions can often be found this way? That is, perhaps setuptools should look at INDEX_URL/PROJECT/VERSION when a version can't be found another way. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
