[18:28:11] <weykent> how does one indicate in the install_requires list that a dependency is only required for particular versions of python? i know i've seen syntax for this before, but i don't remember it
[18:30:56] <Wooble> weykent: you build the list in an if block checking sys.version, typically.
[18:31:21] <weykent> Wooble, yeah, i know i've seen that too, but i could've sworn there was a better way
[18:31:43] <weykent> Wooble, something like install_requires=['enum34[python_version<3.4]']
[18:34:02] <weykent> maybe i was thinking of some proposed syntax instead of something that was accepted
[18:48:40] <doismellburning> DanC_: sounds like something's very wonky your end
[18:48:44] <DanC_> so the openssl client works, but python requests doesn't. I have no idea why
[18:49:25] <DanC_> the first very wonky part is: this is on SLES 11
[18:51:09] <DanC_> any suggestions on how to diagnose wonkyness, doismellburning?
