Installing library with easy_install


I am trying to install a library for sparse matrices called sparsesvd. When I use either easy_install or pip I get an error, for not finding a file.

I also tried downloading the library, and installing it manually with sudo python setup.py install, but the same error appears.

The error basically reads like this:

Error: /...some directories.../README.rst: No such file or directory

Does someone know what the problem might be? Thank you in advance. Diego


Solution

  • in the file setup.py and the file test.py I have replaced the line load(README.rst) by load(README.txt) and it works perfectly
