Hey folks
I am in the throes of installing LP on a new laptop on which I installed a
fresh copy of lucid.
Apart from the spidermonkey issue that we already know about, I found another
problem when running update-sourcecode:
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/bzrlib/plugins/svn/__init__.py", line
120, in init_subvertpy
raise DependencyNotPresent("subvertpy", "bzr-svn: %s" % e.message)
bzrlib.errors.DependencyNotPresent: Unable to import library "subvertpy": bzr-
svn:
It looks like this is down to the fact that update-sourcecode needs subvertpy
to run, but subvertpy is built by update-sourcecode ...
The lucid python-subvertpy package is only built for python 2.6 and the
update-sourcecode script is explicitly using python 2.5.
That looks like the packaging is broken somewhere then -- if bzr-svn is
installed in the 2.5 area but python-subvertpy is not, which is what it
looks like, then that's a bug that has nothing to do with Launchpad.
Where are your bzr-svn and python-subvertpy packages from?
When I remove that
2.5 to make it use the system python, all seems well.
Is there a good reason for this script to use 2.5 or can I commit a change to
make it use the system python?
Using the system python would probably be OK, but I think finding/fixing
the real bug would be better.
