Re: [installation] pip install pyblosxom failed

Hello,

 (my apologies I've subscribed for the digest form of the list and then
could not retrieve the thread and then could not answer to it in the
right place)

Pip works in a very similar way of easy_install, by listing and caching
links from Pypi indexes and honours options like '--find-links',
'--index-url' and so on. It seems that pip could not retrieve archives
from sourceforge links. I made a test with PyFFI package of which Pypi
index offers only sourceforge download links.
It failed also (see http://pastebin.com/iagLGjje).

On the contrary, easy_install can install (pyblosxom) from sourceforge
links. easy_install pyblosxom works !

In regards to the download page of bluesock.org, AFAICS pip honours a
default level of recursion (maybe 2 ??) and then don't reach the
download page.

Anyway, IMHO the best way to get rid of these "limitations" (?) is to
add a link to http://pyblosxom.bluesock.org/download/ from pyblosxom 's
pypi index.
(see the result of 'pip install -f
http://pyblosxom.bluesock.org/download/ -U --log log.txt pyblosxom' at
http://pastebin.com/NXmJV0Tv).
