[Mailman-Users] Trying to install mm 3.0.0b1

[Lindsay Haisley]

I sent this to the dev list and didn't get any answers.  It's probably
more appropriate on this list anyway.

I'm trying to install mm 3.0.0b1 as per the directions in START.rst.
I'm running into a bit of a problem with zc.buildout. in the
bootstrap.py script.  The script reports:

$ python bootstrap.py 
Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.7/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bootstrap.py", line 254, in <module>
    ws.require(requirement)
  File "/tmp/tmp6ebmh9/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 666, in require
  File "/tmp/tmp6ebmh9/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 565, in resolve
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: zc.buildout==1.5.2

However;

$ dpkg -l python-zc.buildout
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name                               Version                            Description
+++-==================================-==================================-==
ii  python-zc.buildout                 1.5.2-1                            system for managing development buildouts

I explicitly installed it!  Do I need to update the mm3 package?

Where do I go from here?
