[13:36:42] <ronny> since when does pip ask for EVERY dependency if it should overwrite/ignore when using --download?
[17:27:47] <qwcode> pyvenv failed to install pip in 3.4.0rc3. anyone know offhand if that should be fixed in the final? or do I likely have some other problem?
[18:03:37] <dstufft> qwcode: well the final is already out, I'm not aware of any problems betweeen rc3 and the final that were fixed related to that though
[18:05:47] <qwcode> yea, I knew the final was out, this version came from a ppa, so not wanting to fiddle with altinstall if didn't have too to get latest.
[18:06:24] <qwcode> but definitely no pip. I'll look at this later, and see if I can figure out what's going on
[18:07:27] <dstufft> If it's a PPA they might have done something stupid like ripped out pip
[19:17:32] <qwcode> dstufft, the whole situation is such an impossible dilemma currently: 1) OS people: "keep your unpackaged rogue pip out of our system", 2) python people: "but your packaged python tools (pip/setuptools/virtualenv) are old and worthless."
[19:20:52] <qwcode> dstufft, the only solution where both are happy is if every user self-manages all his base python installs... i.e. every user altinstalls all there pythons themself, and uses the latest tools there.
