I'm interested in using Lamson for a non-profit project. Unfortunately, I am
new to Python and not yet familiar with its idioms. I tried the
straight-forward easy_install, but was unsuccesful.

$ sudo easy_install lamson
...
Searching for lamson
Best match: lamson 1.0pre11
Processing lamson-1.0pre11-py2.6.egg
....
Processing dependencies for lamson
Searching for lockfile>=0.9
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/lockfile/
Reading http://smontanaro.dyndns.org/python/
Reading http://code.google.com/p/pylockfile/
No local packages or download links found for lockfile>=0.9
error: Could not find suitable distribution for
Requirement.parse('lockfile>=0.9')

I can neither find this package though google, nor can I find a reference to
it. I am using Fedora Release 12 with 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64 and running
Python 2.6.2.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
John B. Nelson

You know, you're like the 3rd person to mention this today.  I wonder if
the dependency chain changed recently and I'm just now finding out about
it.

Let me look into this today and check it out.

I just checked and the latest at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lockfile is 0.8.

Here is a link for 0.9:

Thanks, Miles. Again, I don't yet know Python enough to comment, but this
did work after:

1) Running setup.py
2) Removing 0.8 from my site-packages
3) Changing line 12 of File "/lamson-1.0pre11-py2.6.egg/lamson/utils.py"
from "from daemon import pidlockfile" to "from lockfile import pidlockfile".


At least, I think it is working. It now generates a project; starts; and
passes tests up to the point that requires a properly configured localhost
for forwarding mail.

(Sorry about being the third person to mention it, Zed; Today's my first
day.)
