0%
Description
The following issue was reported by Ethan White:
http://pythonhosted.org/DataONE_ClientLib/install.html#preferred-install-method
recommends using:
sudo easy_install DataONE_LibClient
which errors with:
ethan@oryx:~/$ sudo easy_install DataONE_LibClient
Searching for DataONE-LibClient
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/DataONE_LibClient/
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/DataONE-LibClient/
Couldn't find index page for 'DataONE_LibClient' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/
No local packages or download links found for DataONE-LibClient
error: Could not find suitable distribution for
Requirement.parse('DataONE-LibClient')
It appears the correct library name and associated instructions would now be:
sudo easy_install dataone.libclient

The "easy_install" method of installing the DataONE_ClientLib found at http://pythonhosted.org/DataONE_ClientLib/install.html#preferred-install-method has apparently been deprecated for some time now; it should be permanently removed from PyPI. The preferred method is to use "pip install" as documented here: http://pythonhosted.org/dataone.libclient/setup-d1-client.html.
