eggbasket test failure

[Martijn Faassen]

Already mentioned in bug 315215, but not fixed for me, so making a separate issue:

File "/home/faassen/buildout/z3c.recipe.eggbasket/z3c/recipe/eggbasket/tests/../README.txt", line 135, in README.txt
Failed example:
    print system(buildout)
Expected:
    Installing basket.
    <BLANKLINE>
Got:
    Couldn't find index page for 'zc.recipe.egg' (maybe misspelled?)
    Getting distribution for 'zc.recipe.egg'.
    While:
      Installing.
      Getting section basket.
      Initializing section basket.
      Installing recipe z3c.recipe.eggbasket.
      Getting distribution for 'zc.recipe.egg'.
    Error: Couldn't find a distribution for 'zc.recipe.egg'.
    <BLANKLINE>

This is with Python 2.4. There's another possible issue for this test with Python 2.5

Ah wait, the tests pass for me when I just do 'python2.4 setup.py test'. When I run 'bin/test' I get that error too. And when I *first* run 'python2.4 setup.py test' it downloads some eggs in the current directory and then the next call of 'bin/test' actually passes... This is mentioned in buildout.cfg too.

The strange thing is that bin/test sets up the python path to contain zc.recipe.egg and others from my shared eggs cache, so it should not need to go and find zc.recipe.egg anymore during testing. Apparently I am lacking some information here about how buildout testing is supposed to be setup.

[Martijn Faassen (faassen)]

I was asuming that z3c.recipe.eggbasket performed testing in the same
way as any other builded out system uses, bin/test. I didn't even know
that the "python setup.py test" worked with this package. Not a high
priority then as at least the tests pass in *some* form.

Could you add a note about this in README.txt? (unless it's already
there). Then we can leave this issue at a relatively low priority.

Comment added in README.txt in r94740.

[Maurits van Rees (maurits-vanrees)]

I fixed the bin/test of z3c.recipe.eggbasket by simple adding 'index = http://pypi.python.org/simple' to the buildout.cfg of the README.txt

And I released version 0.4.2 which was long overdue. Please kick me harder next time. ;-)

I'm installing erp5 and I got this error solved by adding 'index = http://pypi.python.org/simple' to the buildout.cfg
