Hi,
A colleague came up with a problem yesterday (and last week) that only
he seemed to have. He however found a stackoverflow question with the
same problem: http://stackoverflow.com/q/21241451/27401
Basically: develop eggs from mr.developer don't show up in the sys.path
of the bin/python (zc.recipe.egg script) and bin/django (djangorecipe
part). Despite:
- The eggs being mentioned as dependency in the project's setup.py. I
triple-verified this; bog standard setup we use in all our projects.
- One project uses buildout 1.4.4, the other 2.x.
- Tried the latest mr.developer and one from half a year ago or so.
- Yep, install_requires mentions them. I verified it with
egg-info/requires.txt: they're there.
- Yep, develop-egg links are present.
- Upgraded setuptools, downgraded setuptools (all pretty recent
versions, though): no change.
- It all runs fine on my computer...
The only solution is to add the missing eggs to the "eggs=" list of the
relevant parts. Even though that should really be unnecessary as they're
mentioned in the proper setup.py.
=> Anyone seen this behaviour before? Any idea of where to look? I'll
try reproducing it locally, but it can't hurt to ask :-)
