[14:30:33] <AVGVSTO> hi
[15:00:34] <coderanger_> Hello
[15:02:37] <AVGVSTO> coderanger_  yesterday, i disturbed pje_mtg, today, can i disturb you? (with my questions and  my bad english :-))
[15:03:37] <AVGVSTO> the questions are about setuptools
[15:08:16] pje_mtg is now known as pje
[15:12:47] <AVGVSTO> i would like to install in /opt and i added alternative.pth in site-packages, but install process don't create the subdir (/opt/project). is it possible for that install process, create sub dir in my -prefix? 
[15:16:07] <pje> If you have a particular directory you want packages to be installed to, you should create it first.
[15:18:17] <AVGVSTO> ok, i can do it with code in setup.py
[15:22:24] <AVGVSTO> thanks pje (as always) bye

[19:47:43] <coderanger> pje: Question for you
[19:48:05] <coderanger> pje: Is there a good way to get setutools to populate the Requires field on PyPI?
[19:48:43] <pje> Yep.  Use Python 2.5.  :)
[19:49:10] <pje> distutils in 2.5 supports the requires= keyword.
[19:49:15] <coderanger> Heh, touche
[19:49:27] <pje> Note, however, that the distutils' requires/provides fields are not used by setuptools for dependency processing.
[19:49:39] <pje> So at best, it would be just informative.
[19:49:53] <coderanger> Well it still might be nice to default that to the value of install_requires or something
[19:49:56] <pje> Also, PEP 314 has very restricted syntax for what goes in Requires: and it doesn't support what setuptools uses
[19:50:06] <coderanger> Ahh
[19:50:15] <pje> in fact, it doesn't support even Python's own version numbers!
[19:51:14] <pje> e.g. 2.5c1 is not a valid version for the Requires field.
[19:51:27] <pje> So, the whole thing is SNAFU'd for use w/setuptools.
[19:51:27] <coderanger> It would be really nice if PyPI supported arbitrary metadata (with the XML-RPC stuff)
[19:51:54] <pje> Yeah, well, in the words of the immortal Wynn Wagner: Send Code(TM)  :)
[19:52:36] <coderanger> Yeah, need school to stop eating my soul first
