So I tried to install buildbot onto a OS X machine, and was unable to install it through the setup.py file. When I tried to run: sudo python setup.py build, it returned this:
error in buildbot setup command: 'install_requires' must be a string or list of strings
containing valid project/version requirement specifiers
I was wondering what I could do to fix this. I have buildbot installed on a machine running ubuntu right now, but cannot seem to install it on the OS X machine.
EDIT: here's a link to setup.py: https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/blob/master/master/setup.py
EDIT #2: Fixed the initial problem, but now when I run either python setup.py build or python setup.py install I keep getting an error:
error: package directory buildbot/buildslave does not exist
EDIT: To fix the problem initially, without having to do all of these steps, simply change the line specifying the version of sqlalchemy (under setup_args['install_requires'] go to sqlalchemy >= 0.6 and change it to sqlalchemy == 0.7.10)
Fixed the initial problem by just copy pasting their newest code from github (the link I posted above). However, it seems by doing just that, I included extra directories in the setup that weren't part of this version (i.e. buildbot.slave etc.). To fix that, I just copied the list labeled 'packages' from the original version of the setup.py, thus fixing the problem.
