setuptools

I have been following the instructions on http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/starting/install/osx/ but for some reason this is not going as I believe it would be expected. I have python 2.7 running by default but had to get easy_install up-to-date by following the instructions on: https://superuser.com/questions/256717/easy-install-the-wrong-version-of-python-modules-mac-os and link it from /usr/local/bin/share to /usr/local/bin. It seems to be working fine. The problem is that now when I install pip it seems to install to 2.6 and not 2.7. darky:~ user$ easy_install --upgrade pip Searching

The question is related to the answer to "Unable to install Python without sudo access" . I need to install python-setuptools to install python modules. I have extracted the installation package. I get the following error when configuring [~/wepapps/pythonModules/setuptools-0.6c9]# ./configure --prefix=/home/masi/.local -bash: ./configure: No such file or directory I did not find the solution at the program's homepage . How can I resolve this error? As Noah states, setuptools isn't an automake package so doesn't use ‘./configure’. Instead it's a pure-Python-style ‘setup.py’ (distutils) script.

刚开始学习 Python 时，发现各类文档和 Blog 中使用的包安装方式各不相同，有的使用 easy_install，setuptools，有的使用 pip，distribute，那麽这几个工具有什么关系呢，看下面这个图就明白了。 可以看出 distribute 是 setuptools 的取代，pip 是 easy_install 的取代 。 正如使用 easy_install 之前需要安装 setuptools ，pip 的使用同样需要依赖 distribute 的安装。 下面简单的介绍一下： Distribute 是对标准库 disutils 模块的增强，我们知道 disutils 主要是用来更加容易的打包和分发包，特别是对其他的包有依赖的包。 Distribute 被创建是因为 Setuptools 包不再维护了。 1.安装 Distribute 可以通过 distribute_setup.py 脚本来安装 Distribute，也可以通过 easy_install，pip，或者源文件来进行安装。不过使用 distribute_setup.py 来安装是最简单和受欢迎的方式。 $ curl -0 http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py $ sudo python distribute_setup.py 2.

I'm curious about the following situation. Let's say I have two projects named project_alpha and project_bravo , both defining a top-level namespace package mymeta . The layout: project_alpha/ -> mymeta/ -> __init__.py -> project_alpha/ -> __init__.py -> version.py -> setup.py project_bravo/ -> mymeta/ -> __init__.py -> project_bravo/ -> __init__.py -> version.py -> setup.py Both mymeta/__init__.py s contain only the line __import__('pkg_resources').declare_namespace(__name__) (according to namespace section in setuptools docs ). Contents of both version.py s: __version_info__ = (0, 9, 9,

I have a Windows 7 64bit machine and want to install the python package mgrs. I have tried using both easy_install and running python setup.py install in the mgrs directory. Easy_install gives me the error below.
