Re: [Bug 908235] Re: Dependencies failure on setup

 

It's just an improvement, a kind of best practice. Usually when a common
user sees a stack trace, sge thinks that the program has a bug and just
stops using it, but if she sees a nice message telling her that you need to
install something, she will, at least, try to install the missing package
before giving up.

It does not hinder the productivity of the program. It's a minor issue.

Bug description:
  When executing the setup script it will crash ans show a stack trace
  with a 'module not found' error. We should try to capture the
  exception and show the user a nicer message, mainly because it's not
  in the standard library yet. Something like 'The setup scripts needs
  the python DistUtilsExtra module to be installed' should be enough.

  The actual output is:
  clicompanion$ sudo python setup.py install
  [sudo] password for user:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "setup.py", line 22, in <module>
      from DistUtilsExtra.command import *
  ImportError: No module named DistUtilsExtra.command
