graphite is missing a dependency on tagging package

[Joe Shaw]

Installing whisper, carbon, and graphite-web 0.9.9 using "pip install", running:

python /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite/manage.py syncdb --noinput

fails with:

Error: No module named tagging

It's probably missing from graphite's setup.py file. Running "pip install tagging" fixes it.

Spoke too soon. Need to "pip install django-tagging"

[chrismd (chrismd)]

Yes there is a new dependency on django.tagging in 0.9.9, its not really a bug. The check-dependencies.py script checks for this.

[chrismd (chrismd)]

I'll update the wikidot post to mention this

[Joe Shaw (joeshaw)]

The check-dependencies.py script is not included if you install graphite-web via pip. The deps should really be expressed in the setup.py file. (And this is indeed done for carbon.)

[Joe Shaw (joeshaw)]

s/pip/from pypi/ -- it doesn't matter what tool you use to install from pypi, whether it's pip or easy_install or whatever.

If you know what should be added please submit a patch. I promise you're not stepping on anyone's toes by submitting fixes ;)

django-tagging was added to requirements.txt just after the 0.9.9 release. 0.9.10 should properly install the dependency with pip install.

[Michael Hood (michaelhood)]

This still occurs in a 0.9.10 pypi-based (via pip) install.

Installing the django-tagging package (via pip) resolves it.

I faced the same error. Installing django-tagging didn't resolve it. This was on Python 2.6 (64 bit on Mint 14).

But tried it on Python2.7 (64 bit on the same machine) and it worked fine.
Not sure what is happening here.
