Error building python3k-trepan

[rmsilva1973]

Hi,

I've cloned the repo and tried building it with

python setup.py build

(seemed to work)

then I tried:

python setup.py install

and it fails with the following error:

As you might notice, I was trying to install python3-trepan to debug an issue in pandas. That's why I'm inside pandas-dev environment on miniconda.

Make sure the python you are running in python setup.py install is Python 3.

[rmsilva1973]

@rocky It is:

(pandas-dev) moutinho@LUNA:~/projetos/python3-trepan$ python --version
Python 3.8.2

[rocky]

Looks like the problem is in installing tracer.

And it looks like the packaging for that is a bit old - it hasn't been changed in 7 years.

Can you install this by itself?

[rmsilva1973]

Installing tracer with pip allowed the installation to procceed, but it stopped a bit farther down with:

error: xdis 4.5.0 is installed but xdis<4.5.0,>=4.4.0 is required by {'uncompyle6'}

[rocky]

Install uncompyle6 and trepan3k from github right now untill there's another release of that.

There is a lot of upheaval right now in the decompilation part which is necessary to to be able to support more modern Pythons, and alas that is a strong dependency on trepan3k.

[rocky]

I've just released version 3.6.7 (and a new version of uncompyle6) whch should get everything back in sync. I think this will address this problem.
