Description zelegolas 2011-05-09 07:02:36 EEST

Step to reproduce the issue:

1. Installed QtSQK 1.1 (version Qt_SDK_Mac64_offline_v1_1_en) on a custom foler
2. Switch to a virtualenvwrapper (cmd workon ENVNAME) on python 2.7 environment
3. Execute the command: pip install pyside

On my Mac it's display this message:
"Downloading/unpacking pyside
  Downloading pyside-pkgsetup-0.4.2.zip (3.5Mb): 3.5Mb downloaded
  Running setup.py egg_info for package pyside
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 14, in <module>
    IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/Volumes/Perso/.pyvirtualenv/test27/build/pyside/setup.py'
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
    Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 14, in <module>

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/Volumes/Perso/.pyvirtualenv/test27/build/pyside/setup.py'

----------------------------------------
Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1"

On my folder '/Volumes/Perso/.pyvirtualenv/test27/build/pyside' I have the file 
setup.py.in not the file setup.py.

If I try to rename setup.py.in to setup.py and run:
 python setup.y install

It doesn't work! And I have this message:
"Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 56, in <module>
    packages = find_packages('src'),
  File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/setuptools/__init__.py", line 31, in
find_packages
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'src'"

Sorry, but I have no idea what the "pip install pyside" commands do, better
report them to whom created this install method used by you. However feel free
to report any bug if you have problems compiling and installing PySide (using
make install).

Hi Hugo

If you work with Python I'm very surprise you don't know pip. pip is a standard
tool like easy_install to install python package. 
(http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip/1.0.1). 
If a package is properly done pip is able to install it. 
I hope, for you, you will support this tool as you should compatible
easy_install too.

Regards

So be a bit more surprised as I don't work with Python, I work with Python
bindings, so I don't need to use tools made for Python programmers because in
essence I'm not really a Python programmer, PySide, Shiboken, etc is a C++
project to create Python bindings to a C++ library, I guess you got it.

Anyway the only installation procedure supported by PySide core developers is
cmake/make/make install, any other were delegated to their creators and this is
the case of easy_install, windows installer, linux and mac packages, but if you
really want PySide to be installed using any desired tools we are happy to
accept your patches but I guess is better to not expect it for us as IMO we are
very happy delegating these tasks =].

Regards

See bug 943.

Plz, don't reopen bugs, first comment on them, then we could reopen it.
