Description
It is folly to accept new versions of packages without testing them first. But a setuptools call, via easy_install, to install a specific, tested version of Genshi (0.4.4) fails with the message that an appropriate package could not be found.
root@ubuntu:~# easy_install "genshi==0.4.4" Searching for genshi==0.4.4 Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/genshi/ Couldn't find index page for 'genshi' (maybe misspelled?) Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while) Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/ Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/Genshi/ Reading http://genshi.edgewall.org/ Reading http://genshi.edgewall.org/wiki/Download No local packages or download links found for genshi==0.4.4 error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('genshi==0.4.4')
Please be kind to the community and allow for specifying known versions.
