Hi gnue --
I have become interested in this package, but there is very little current
information on it. There does not seem to be a very active development
community. I have tried to install using setup.py from the tar.gz, but I
am getting some syntax error.
You know, I think Richard Stallman is a developer deity and I worship his
genius. And I don't want to be offensive to anyone who has worked hard on
those distro's carrying the GNU seal of approval. However, (I might be
showing my naivete) when I say those distros might be kind of obscure.
I am sure as heck not going to use those GNUe executables. And I have
never really cared for Debian/Ubuntu (whatever). I learned in school on
Fedora. I like CentOS. It is rapidly becoming a very main stream
enterprise operating system. Yet I can't get the setup.py, an outdated
delivery, to install the tar.gz, an incompatible format. I need a CentOS
rpm that I can install in a virtualenv.
Now you all proclaim CentOS to be innocent yet ambiguous. I think it
should be innocent until proven guilty. It is developed in a very
disciplined and knowledgeable and active community. Can we give CentOS a
break?
In any case, I intend to attempt to debug that setup script. I am getting
an 'incompatible format' error because of '\xc3' in line 32 of
setupext/install_data.py.
