Question

use_2to3 in setup.py invalid?

Closed this issue 2 years ago · 4 comments

Installing on a fresh anaconda(python 3.9.7)/sunpy setup I was getting the error
error in nustar_pysolar setup command: use_2to3 is invalid.
after running python setup.py install.

Deleting line 117 in setup.py use_2to3=True, fixed the issue and could install no problem.

I haven't tested with python 3.9 yet...nor have I tested with astropy v4 (I think?). My setup.py for this is probably four years old, so it's probably way out of date.

I think it was actually with astropy v5... but a simple fix if others encounter the same issue on newer installs.

Side note, at some point this whole package needs to be updated to the Astropy APE 17 installation without the use of astropy-helpers. I did this for nustar-gen-utils, but I never got around to it for nustar_pysolar.

Should be deprecated now with #71
