[zope2-tracker] [Bug 928650] [NEW] installing zope with pip requires upgrading zope.interface version

[Jeffrey Finkelstein]

Public bug reported:

Zope2 version 2.13.12 on Ubuntu 11.10.

To reproduce:

    virtualenv env
    . env/bin/activate
    pip install Zope2
    mkzopeinterface foo

At this point, we get the following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/mnt/data/src/kajiaso/testenv/bin/mkzopeinstance", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/mnt/data/src/kajiaso/testenv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/distribute-0.6.19-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 2713, in <module>
    parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
  File "/mnt/data/src/kajiaso/testenv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/distribute-0.6.19-py2.7.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 588, in resolve
    raise VersionConflict(dist,req) # XXX put more info here
pkg_resources.VersionConflict: (zope.interface 3.6.1 (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages), Requirement.parse('zope.interface>=3.8.0'))


As a workaround, just do

    pip install zope.interface --upgrade
