1.4.2 (python 2.5.2)


rather than 1.4.3


Did something go wrong here?

version 1.4.4 is also missing these files:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/roundup/1.4.4

Hi, where did you get the files for 1.4.3 from?
SVN or the tarball from 
http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/r/roundup/?

I wonder what the interest is: I mean those tarballs could just have 
been defect, and there are many new tarballs to use (like 1.4.11 which 
is the current version.)
I do not think it would be wise to re-issue new tarballs with the same 
number.

I got the tarball for 1.4.3 from

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/roundup/1.4.3


My intention to do so:
The update documentation urged me doing this. =)

I started with 1.3.3 and have to update every version step by step.
The next thing to do was to install 1.4.3 when I reached 1.4.2.

Am I wrong with that?

AFAIK I can't jump from 1.4.2 to 1.4.11 omitting the versions in
between. It corrupts the (sqlite in this case) database, doesn't it?

I do not think you would need each version that is mentioned
in the update instructions, but on the other hand the instructions
are not entirely clear about this.

(This is why I am adding Richard and Ralf, maybe they can say
for good.)

Bernhard, you (or ThomasAH for your tracker) *did* upgrade from 0.6.X to
current some time ago (more recently than me at least). According to
issue2550595 this worked in one step with the patches in that issue
applied?

So you're probably in a better position to comment on the upgrade
procedure than me -- I've been running quite recent trackers for quite
some time...

I'm afraid issue2550595 won't help me much as I am upgrading from 1.3.3
only. The patch mentioned is for a lot earlier versions.


Whenever there are these warnings during installation, the version
number reported by roundup-admin -v or roundup-server -v does not
improve to the version number currently installed:

*** SOURCE WARNING: There are files missing (279/285 found)!
Missing: roundup-admin
Missing: roundup-demo
Missing: roundup-gettext
Missing: roundup-mailgw
Missing: roundup-server
Missing: roundup-xmlrpc-server





I think I get into trouble here because

roundup-admin migrate

will therefore remain in state of version 1.4.2 for these versions.
Is this a problem? Will there be migrations omitted because of the old
roundup-admin version?

That warning may be ignored. The files are generated. I need to fix that 
check to ignore them.

Please try installing the latest version of Roundup, 1.4.11

Do not mix installation from SVN with installation from tarballs. The 
former's files will be datestamped younger than the latter and thus the 
tarball files will be considered "older" and not to be installed.

Use "python setup.py install --force" to force installation of the "older" 
files from the tarballs.
