A release to at least stop crashing on Subversion 1.5 would be nice
In command/sdist.py, line 90 refers to a global log function which does not exist. Thus, instead of logging a warning about not understanding Subversion, setuptools crashes. The default setup scripts for Pylons (and probably others) use svn revision tagging. Thus, the following causes a crash: easy_install Pylons paster create -t Pylons proj setup.py develop And, since the user hasn't done any config (or anything but follow a tutorial), he isn't able to easily figure out what went wrong. Also, since setuptools was likely installed automatically for him via the egg in the cheeseshop, he isn't aware of anything that may be in dev for setuptools. A new user's likely response is to get frustrated for 15 minutes, then move on to another web framework / language. Even if you don't provide svn 1.5 support, can you at least post an egg that won't crash in the presence of svn 1.5? Thanks. Arlo

You can easy_install -U "setuptools == dev" It is fixed on trunk as far as i know. -- -- Cordialement, KiOrKY GPG Key FingerPrint: 0x1A1194B7681112AF

That does not really help with an empty python. I'm not going to install anything with easy_install to have no sideeffects when using buildout. -- Christian Zagrodnick · cz@gocept.com gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstraße 29 · 06112 halle (saale) · germany http://gocept.com · tel +49 345 1229889 4 · fax +49 345 1229889 1 Zope and Plone consulting and development

Seconded. We are feeling this pain in the Plone project too. Is there anything we can do to speed up the release of a version that doesn't break with Subversion 1.5? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/A-release-to-at-least-stop-crashing-on-Subversion-1.5-...
