[00:16:59] <waynr> howdy folks I am attempting to use twine per description here: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing/#upload-your-distributions
[00:17:08] <waynr> but I am getting an HTTP500 error
[00:17:38] <waynr> if anyone has advice for how to proceed I would appreciate it
[00:31:41] <dstufft> waynr: did you make a bdist_dumb or something?
[00:33:25] <waynr> I made a bdist for python3 and a bdist_wheel for python2 based on the files I observed being available in the official jenkins-job-builder
[00:34:48] <waynr> making a couple assumptions there about how the jenkins-job-builder-1.3.0.tar.gz is generated here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/jenkins-job-builder/1.3.0
[00:36:03] <waynr> i must be doing something wrong
[00:39:01] <dstufft> you should _always_ upload a sdist, and you should upload wheels whenever you can (they are binary packages, so if your code is pure python you should be able to upload just fine, but if it has C then it gets harder)
[00:39:23] <dstufft> https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing/#packaging-your-project might be useful for you
[00:39:46] <waynr> i'm following that but i am a little dense
[00:42:42] <waynr> okay, I've replaced the bdist with an sdist
[00:47:13] <waynr> pip install . still doesn't work on the dependent project even if I pin the jjb-puppetlabs dependency to 1.2.1.dev145
[00:47:26] <waynr> python setup.py develop does work
[01:03:48] <dstufft> waynr: probably need pip install --pre .
[01:03:59] <dstufft> pip won't install pre-releases by default
[14:19:50] <lmm> hi, I'm trying to use pip to install a package but it's trying to use an old version of gcc that I don't have installed any more. What does pip call to do the building?
