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 Yet I can't get the setup.py, an outdated delivery, to install the tar.gz, an incompatible format.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. --bcaec520e913bb06b404f30978f5 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div><div><div>Hi gnue --<br><br></div>I have become inter= ested in this package, but there is very little current information on it.= =A0 There does not seem to be a very active development community.=A0 I hav= e tried to install using setup.py from the tar.gz, but I am getting some sy= ntax error.<br> <br></div>You know, I think Richard Stallman is a developer deity and I wor= ship his genius.=A0 And I don't want to be offensive to anyone who has = worked hard on those distro's carrying the GNU seal of approval.=A0 How= ever, (I might be showing my naivete) when I say those distros might be kin= d of obscure.<br> <br></div>I am sure as heck not going to use those GNUe executables.=A0 And= I have never really cared for Debian/Ubuntu (whatever).=A0 I learned in sc= hool on Fedora.=A0 I like CentOS.=A0 It is rapidly becoming a very main str= eam enterprise operating system.=A0 Yet I can't get the setup.py, an ou= tdated delivery, to install the tar.gz, an incompatible format.=A0 I need a= CentOS rpm that I can install in a virtualenv.<br> <div><br>Now you all proclaim CentOS to be innocent yet ambiguous.=A0 I thi= nk it should be innocent until proven guilty.=A0 It is developed in a very = disciplined and knowledgeable and active community.=A0 Can we give CentOS a= break?=A0 <br> <br>In any case, I intend to attempt to debug that setup script.=A0 I am ge= tting an 'incompatible format' error because of '\xc3' in l= ine 32 of setupext/install_data.py.<br><br><br clear=3D"all"></div><div><di= v> <div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div> --bcaec520e913bb06b404f30978f5-- --===============3925445390828999784== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ gnue mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnue --===============3925445390828999784==--
