Description Bowe Strickland 2010-10-04 19:15:41 UTC
[bowe@station166 ~]$ rpm -V python-cheetah
[bowe@station166 ~]$ rpm -q python-cheetah
python-cheetah-2.4.2.1-2.fc14.x86_64
[bowe@station166 ~]$ uname -a
Linux station166.rosemont.lan 2.6.35.4-28.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Sep 15 01:56:54 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[bowe@station166 ~]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 14 (Laughlin)

all packages updated from fedora, updates, and updates-testing as of this filing.

first, "cheetah test" fails...

[bowe@station166 ~]$ cheetah test
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/cheetah", line 4, in <module>
    import pkg_resources
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2675, in <module>

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 552, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Cheetah==2.2.1


secondly, every time I try to generate text calling str(template) on a 
cheetah.Template object, I get the same error, exemplified by this essentially cut and pasted from the Documentation...

cat > /tmp/t << EOF
from Cheetah.Template import Template
templateDef = """
<HEAD><TITLE>$title</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
$contents
</BODY></HTML>"""
nameSpace = {'title': 'Hello World Example', 'contents': 'Hello World!'}
t = Template(templateDef, searchList=[nameSpace])
print t
EOF

Comment 2 Bowe Strickland 2010-10-04 19:42:44 UTC
Okay, a stale /usr/local/bin/cheetah was getting in the way.

output of "/usr/bin/cheetah test" attached, with many failures, all similar to failures i'm seeing...

Comment 3 Mike Bonnet 2010-10-04 19:49:38 UTC
Yes, these look like issues with Python 2.7.  I'm looking into it.

Comment 4 Dave Malcolm 2010-10-15 20:09:39 UTC
Looks a lot like:
  http://github.com/rtyler/cheetah/issues#issue/2
which has a proposed fix

Comment 5 James Laska 2010-10-15 20:27:06 UTC
Also, looks like python-cheetah.spec is calling teh testsuite during %check, but not properly handling the return code from the test suite.  Should that be changed in the future so that python-cheetah fails to build if the test suite fails?

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/python-cheetah/2.4.2.1/2.fc14/data/logs/i686/build.log

Comment 6 Mike Bonnet 2010-10-15 20:32:09 UTC
%check should fail if the test suite returns a non-zero error code.  It looks like Test.py may not be doing that.  I'll look into fixing that too.

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2010-10-18 19:59:29 UTC
python-cheetah-2.4.3-1.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-cheetah-2.4.3-1.fc14

Comment 8 Mike Bonnet 2010-10-18 20:07:12 UTC
I applied the fix suggested in issue2 above, which fixed most of the errors.  The rest of the failing tests were the EOL issues mentioned in issue3, so I've disabled those 3 EOL tests for now.  The patches can be seen here:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=python-cheetah.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/f14/master;hb=f14/master

Please test the update packages and do the karma dance in bodhi as appropriate.

Thanks!

Comment 10 James Laska 2010-10-26 19:45:18 UTC
I'm still having trouble getting cobbler to properly serve up content over http.  However, I've confirmed that kickstart templates (cheetah-based) work properly from the command-line.  I'll need to dig into the cobbler html issues, but I suspect they are different issues.

Comment 11 Fedora Update System 2010-10-28 05:52:27 UTC
