we run pip install debtcollector separately, it reports the same issue, here is our OS version

No sure this is a bug for debtcollector bug , check your pkg_resource has attribute evaluate_marker.

I'm seeing the same thing. Looks like debtcollector to me.

Possibly more like a PBR issue.

[Max Cameron (l6unchpad)]

Solution for me was to upgrade setuptools. See:
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/pbr/compatibility.html#evaluate-marker

"evaluate_markers may run into issues with the ‘>’, ‘>=’, ‘<’, and ‘<=’ operators if the installed version of setuptools is less than 17.1. Projects using these operators with markers should specify a minimum version of 17.1 for setuptools."

I don't see any aforementioned operators in https://github.com/openstack/debtcollector/blob/master/setup.cfg so leaving this as a bug in pbr.

[Robert Collins (lifeless)]

@max - https://github.com/openstack/debtcollector/blob/master/requirements.txt has those markers. Openstack needs to start issuing a minimum version of setuptools as a setup_requires; this is not a pbr responsibility IMO.

Ubuntu 12.04 is no longer support for general customers [1]. I think this is safe to close now.
