Description

when I install qpid-tools from the launchpad repository for ubuntu 18.04 (bionic)

% qpid-tool
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/bin/qpid-tool", line 33, in <module>

from qmf.console import Session, Console, SchemaClass, ObjectId
ImportError: No module named qmf.console

 

so I do: 

blacklab% dpkg -L python-qmf
/.
/usr
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/python2.7
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/_init_.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/client.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/console.py
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/python-qmf
/usr/share/doc/python-qmf/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/python-qmf/copyright
blacklab%

 

there should be a qmf directory in whoch console sits... fix it by

removing the qmf. from the import statement, and it works fine.

So there is some issue with teh setuptools or the debian packaging for python-qmf .
