Description Kristoffer Grundström 2017-05-13 18:56:09 CEST

Description of problem: I tried the pip3 command for the first time in order to have python download and install plyvel for me. That failed due to the version of leveldb not being compatible.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9

How reproducible: I can reproduce this all the time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a terminal window.
2. Login as root (su -)
3. Type pip3 install plyvel
4. The install will fail due to skipping the incompatible version of leveldb.
5. Type pip3 install leveldb upgrade.
6. Type pip3 install plyvel.
7. Installation fails again due to skipping the incompatible version of leveldb.

Comment 1 Rémi Verschelde 2017-05-14 20:50:32 CEST

Please give more details. What's an "incompatible version of leveldb"? I suppose it gave an explicit error message?

Note that you have python3-plyvel in Cauldron already.

Comment 2 Kristoffer Grundström 2017-05-17 14:51:22 CEST

[root@linux ~]# pip3 install python3-plyvel
Collecting python3-plyvel
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement python3-plyvel (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for python3-plyvel

And YES, python2.7 AND python3 is installed.

Comment 3 Rémi Verschelde 2017-05-17 14:55:25 CEST

> pip3 install python3-plyvel

That's not how you install packages with pip3. `python3-plyvel` is the RPM package of Mageia, not the pip package.
