Hi,
I'm running a 64-bit Fedora Core 3 with python 2.3.4. I'm trying to
install setuptools to use with Trac, and get the following error:
[root at Mrdumpling ~]$ python ez_setup.py
Downloading
http://cheeseshop.python.org/packages/2.3/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6a4-py2.3.egg
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ez_setup.py", line 206, in ?
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "ez_setup.py", line 141, in main
from setuptools.command.easy_install import main
OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum
I get the same type of error if I try installing setuptools manually. I
figure this has to do with the 64-bit nature of the OS and python, but
not being a python person, don't know what a workaround would be.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Viren
