setup script requires README file, but it does not exist

[lowdef]

Trying to run:
soundannotatordemo/soundannotatordemo/democode/UseCase-ProcessingFiles.py

I get the error

File "/home/lowdef/projects/soundannotatordemo/soundannotatordemo/democode/UseCase-ProcessingFiles.py", line 55, in <module>
from  soundannotatordemo.config import runtimeMetaData

ImportError: No module named soundannotatordemo.config

Trying to add on to the path does not fix the problem.

Trying to run:
cd ~/projects/soundannotatordemo
python setup.py build install

gives:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    return open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), fname)).read()
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'README'

So I added a meaningless README file.

Tried again and added sudo:

running build
...

Now it worked, but the README file was not used.

And warnings about " inconsistent subversion versions in working copy!" and something about "IrreproducibleResult". Meaningful or not?

This shouldn't happen if you have an actual clone of the git repo without uncommitted changes.

Did you clone or download?

For now this is desired behavior. Working without git makes the work you do irreproducible. I'll soon review how the calculated features are stored. That will be a good moment to consider a more deployment only like build.
