[23:19] <mlew> hi all, can anyone help installing simplejson on jython 2.5.3? I installed jython on my mac using homebrew, and I'm getting a cryptic error
[23:19] <pjenvey> mlew - what's the error
[23:20] <mlew> so I tried to run ez_setup.py first, and it tells me this:
[23:20] <mlew> Downloading http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.5/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.5.egg

[23:20] <agronholm> please don't flood the channel
[23:20] <agronholm> use a pastebin service
[23:20] <mlew> woops - https://gist.github.com/mlew/5810395
[23:22] <mlew> pjenvey: ever seen anything like that?
[23:23] <agronholm> have you tried with an up to date version of setuptools?
[23:24] <mlew> i tried installing distribute 0.6.45 directly and got a similar error
[23:26] <mlew> it seems like maybe homebrew doesn't configure jython correctly, and maybe i'm missing an env variable or something?
[23:26] <agronholm> not sure, I was able to install distribute 0.6.45 just fine
[23:26] <mlew> how did you install jython, and then how did you install distribute?
[23:27] <agronholm> I used the installer and did a normal installation
[23:27] <agronholm> then I executed distribute_setup.py with jython
[23:27] <mlew> are you also on a mac?
[23:28] <mlew> seems like the problem might be related to homebrew
[23:28] <agronholm> nope, linux
[23:28] <mlew> I'll try the installer and see what happens
[23:28] <agronholm> btw you might want to use setuptools instead of distribute
[23:28] <agronholm> distribute is obsolete
[23:29] <mlew> i thought distribute was the new setuptools
[23:29] <agronholm> and a few months ago they merged back and distribute was obsoleted
[23:30] * robbyoconnor (~wakawaka@guifications/user/r0bby) has joined #jython
[23:30] <mlew> ahh, word - I see that on pypi
[23:30] <mlew> thx
[23:35] <mlew> agronholm: sweet - seems like the installer fixed all. I'll have to report a bug to the homebrew guys
[23:35] <agronholm> this is one of many reasons why I prefer linux over mac :)
[23:36] <agronholm> packaging is the one thing that is much better done on linux, compared to osx and windows
[23:38] <mlew> agronholm: i totally agree with you on that
[23:50] <pjenvey> mlew - FYI I usually see that issue when people don't use the provided command line script runner
[23:50] <pjenvey> the 'jython' shell script
[23:51] <pjenvey> usually people are doing java -jar jython.jar, but I doubt that's the case here, sounds like maybe homebrew is using a nonstandard runner or something
[23:51] <pjenvey> basically, sys.executable appears to be None, which causes the breakage
[23:52] <mlew> interesting
[23:52] <pjenvey> the script runner passes along a flag with its own path that causes jython to set sys.executable to that value
