[00:43:37] <UraniumAnchor> I'm trying to log into https://pypi.python.org/pypi via Google OpenID and it just says "We're sorry! An error occurred trying to fulfill your request." and doesn't get past that
[02:47:39] <orangerobot> hi there. I'm trying my hand at pip and virtualenv but I've hit an apparent deadend because i need to install things as a non-root user. Now, in order to be able to do pip install as non root I must use --user option so that it gets saved to my home. But now should I use the binaries created in ~/.local/bin or those under my projects' virtualenv?
[02:48:38] <tomprince> orangerobot: If you want to install something in a virtualenv, use the pip from the virtualenv. You don't need --user for that (and I'm not sure if it does anything sensible when you do).
[02:51:08] <orangerobot> but what about the virtualenv executable itself?
[02:52:27] <tomprince> It doesn't matter which virtualenv binary you run.
[02:53:22] <orangerobot> do you recommend that I install virtualenv from my linux distro repo just to keep things simpler? tomprince
[02:53:30] <orangerobot> otherwise i would need to install virtualenv with pip
[02:57:02] <tomprince> I typically use virtualenv from the distro. (Although it will often install an old pip/setuptools into the created virtualenvs.
[02:57:34] <orangerobot> i see. thanks for helping tomprince
[02:58:30] <tomprince> It will work just fine installed too, though.
[06:36:00] <amitprakash> Hi, I've specified multiple repositories in my pypirc, how do I ask pip install to look through all the repos when installing packages?
[14:46:37] <dzen> is there a nominal way to get the requires.txt data from a python package ?
[14:48:11] <mgedmin> of an installed package? probably, with pkg_resources
