upgrade failed - but not python-lxml fault

[alexxxm]

I saw similar problems in a previous post, but your suggestion that the fault comes from python-lxml < 2.0.5 suggests my problem is different: I'm on Fedora fc8, and I have python-lxml-2.0.7-1.fc8 installed.

During install:

...
Setting up bash completion... failed

and trying to run it:

any idea about it?

possibly related: during the 1st install part (yum install...): I never noticed it, maybe it always did it in the past, but this is what it says now:

sudo easy_install -U BeautifulSoup

[alexxxm]

that command worked, and after that "calibre_postinstall" worked too without errors.

But calibre dies at launch with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/calibre", line 8, in <module>
    load_entry_point('calibre==0.4.89', 'gui_scripts', 'calibre')()

What version of qt and pyqt do you have?

[alexxxm]

qt-3.3.8b-2.fc8
qt4-4.3.5-1.fc8
qt4-x11-4.3.5-1.fc8
qt-devel-3.3.8b-2.fc8
PyQt-3.17.4-1.fc8
PyQt-devel-3.17.4-1.fc8
PyQt4-4.3.3-1.fc8

I know there is a requirement PyQt >= 4.4.2, but up to now I did not have any problems...

alessandro

[kovidgoyal]

yeah well you do need qt 4.4.2

[alexxxm]

damn. Oh well, migrating to the binary version...
