[08:20:04] <tj__> is this it?

[08:25:06] <meshy> tj__: the readme [1] suggests that there might be some packages you need installed.

[08:25:07] <meshy> https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python

[08:25:40] <meshy> tj__: have you run `sudo apt-get install python3-dev libmysqlclient-dev`?

[08:26:16] <tj__> no, but i am working in a virtualenv, do global apt-get install affect my virtualenv?

[08:27:39] <meshy> tj__: yeah, some system packages need to be installed globally even when using a virtualenv

[08:28:01] <tj__> meshy: oh, that's cool, let me do it : )

[08:28:09] <meshy> tj__: ace :)

[08:30:33] <tj__> meshy: IT WORKED !

[08:30:47] <tj__> meshy: pretty thanks > ^_^ <

[08:31:03] <meshy> tj__: fantastic!

[08:31:07] <meshy> tj__: you're welcome :)

[11:19:34] <gadget> Hello. I'm trying to copy a json file into EGG-INFO when installing a package. Is there another way of doing this other than creating a method to run with a egg_info.writers entry point?

[11:20:21] <gadget> or if that sounds like an odd thing to do; the high level thing that I'm trying to achieve is to supply some arbitrary metadata about my package to a consumer application through pkg_resources

[11:29:57] <ronny> gadget: what kind of data do you want to supply?

[11:32:14] <gadget> Preferably some json about what things the plugin provides to the consumer application

[11:33:00] <dstufft> gadget: I think egg_info.writers is the primary way

[11:33:08] <dstufft> you might be able to hack it by overriding some command though
