[06:59:29] <mgedmin> yup, clear pypi cookies, pypi works again!
[09:46:53] <delinquentme> so occasionally I'm having issues with pip not installing a package when i code the command into a shell script ... anyone know what the issue might be?
[09:48:37] <doismellburning> delinquentme: what does "not installing" mean? log?
[09:49:27] <delinquentme> doismellburning, say I specify the version in that pip command ... and a different version ends up being installed after the script finishes
[09:49:49] <mgedmin> wheee download code over http and run it as root!
[09:50:47] <mgedmin> I wouldn't trust Debian's packaged pip to be able to upgrade itself from PyPI
[09:51:11] <mgedmin> any reason why you can't use the packaged pip?
[09:51:40] <mgedmin> if I needed a newer pip, I'd probably create a virtualenv in /opt or /srv somewhere
[09:51:53] <mgedmin> then /opt/mystuff/bin/pip install -U pip
[09:52:11] <mgedmin> please don't consider my answer to be authoritative
[09:52:12] <doismellburning> mgedmin: I've never had a problem doing so fwiw
[09:52:39] <doismellburning> (I have a lot of vagrant boxen that `apt-get install python-pip ; pip install --upgrade pip`)
[09:52:54] <mgedmin> you never said *which* of the three pip commands gives you trouble
[09:53:10] <doismellburning> delinquentme: more data please
[09:53:27] <mgedmin> I suggest merging the two pip installs that explicitly specify versions into a single command
[09:53:39] <mgedmin> so you know the 2nd won't upgrade the package you pinned in the 1st
[09:54:00] <delinquentme> kk smart lemme give it a go
[10:17:52] <delinquentme> doismellburning, mgedmin sorted it out -- the apache-libcloud version in the repos was sufficiently up to date. so they all run through correctly .. time foar sleep
[22:30:54] <delinquentme> Ok so I've sorted out the issue to this command: pip install -e git+https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/libcloud.git@trunk#egg=apache-libcloud #edge
[22:31:10] <delinquentme> when run in console ... runs just fine ... when run via script ... fails miserably
