Re: [galaxy-dev] Error uploading file

Removing webob, simplejson, pastedeploy, and a few other things did the trick. Do you guys plan on ever letting the system resolve dependencies itself, or are you always going to keep using eggs for self-contained packages?

Hi Pedro, Because Galaxy depends on very specific versions of these dependencies, allowing any system-installed version would raise a whole host of difficult to decipher problems. Although the 'require' code is supposed to specifically handle dependency conflicts like this, it clearly does not work in all cases. I'm unable to find a configuration which causes this issue locally, however, so I haven't been able to track down the bug yet. --nate
