easy_install complains about not finding a setup script in "anyrelease" directory

[boftx@…]

Here are two outputs from running easy_install that failed when trying to install this module. The first is from TicketMoverPlugin, and the second is when trying to install the module by itself. It appears that TicketMoverPlugin won't run without this.

This is probably a bug with your version of setuptools, guessing.

Turns out to be a bug in my knowledge of how easy_install works (being very new to python). Once I figured out I could give the name of the version directory to easy_install it installed ok. Having now seen that a download file can contain multiple versions this makes sense. (Do I dare suggest the documentation for how to install Trac plugins leaves a bit to be desired?)

Could you specify what command works. I just did svn co ​http://trac-hacks.org/svn/ticketmoverplugin/ cd ticketmoverplugin/0.11/

[szybalski@…]

I guess the key was to get it from svn:

svn co http://trac-hacks.org/svn/tracsqlhelperscript/
cd tracsqlhelperscript/anyrelease
python setup.py install

same for
svn co http://trac-hacks.org/svn/ticketsidebarproviderplugin/
#enter the folder
python setup.py install

And now install the ticketmoverplugin
