To able to run on Debian: pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: carbon about carbonate HOT 6 CLOSED

I found the problem: the carbon package is installed by pip under /opt/graphite/lib
and not /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ as it was expecting. After symlinking things, this works.

Interesting. You shouldn't need to create symlinks to compensate for graphite/carbon installing its libraries in odd places because of https://github.com/jssjr/carbonate/blob/master/carbonate/cluster.py#L3-L4.

Glad you found a fix, though.

I run into the same problem when I installed carbonate and carbon via pip. If carbon is installed via the debian package this problems seems not to be present.

The debian package has the following patch:
http://sources.debian.net/src/graphite-carbon/0.9.12-3/debian/patches/disable_install_opt.patch

Could this be the a general solution for this issue?
Would it make sense to include it upstream?

had the same issue under debian, symlinking fixed it, thanks

from carbonate.

Yeah. This is gross. The debian package is removing the /opt/graphite prefix from setup so we're able to load all of carbonate's dependencies directly from the default sys.path. I made an attempt to fix this with #33. Do you mind giving that a shot to see if this fixes things more reliably?

from carbonate.

Should be fixed in #33
