[Biopython-dev] [Biopython - Bug #3384] Installation fails with pip-3.2

[redmine at redmine.open-bio.org]

Issue #3384 has been updated by Peter Cock.


Does the standard install mechanism work on your machine? i.e.

python3.2 setup.py build
python3.2 setup.py test
sudo python3.2 setup.py install

If you want to investigate the pip error, there is a possible workaround developed by NumPy (who also use 2to3 in a similar way to us), see http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1857

Thanks
