Title: Can't install virutualenv
Post by: oneself on 2016/02/06, 22:33:25
Hi,


I'm trying to install virutalenv but there seems to be a weird dependency that cannot be satisfied.
virtualenv requires python3-virtualenv
python3-virtualenv requires both python-setuptools-whl and python-pip-whl but they cannot be installed together.


When I install one, it removes the other and vice versa.

You probably need to wait a little bit, there seems to be some disruptive changes to python.

python-setuptools-whl is already the newest version (18.8-1).

Catch 22 - i would suggest to write a bug against python-setuptools-whl or python-pip-whl or both at your wish.

Thank you for your help.  It's good to know that it's not just an issue with my system.


Where's the best place to file a bug for this?  Should I file with Siduction or somewhere else?

this is upstream aka debian - you should use reportbug for it, it is installed in a standard siduction installation
