nboley / grit Goto Github PK

I found my runs always failing with this warning:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py:1049: UserWarning: /home/USER/.python-eggs is writable by group/others and vulnerable to attack when used with get_resource_filename. Consider a more secure location (set with .set_extraction_path or the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment variable).
  warnings.warn(msg, UserWarning)

I'm not sure why a warning would kill the run it and I haven't found the call in the script, but after modifying the folder ($ chmod g-wx,o-wx ~/.python-eggs), it completes satisfactorily.

Perhaps this could be modified to warn the user rather than terminate the process, as I can't imagine it is process breaking.

Hi! This might sort itself out as soon as I press ‘Submit’, but http://grit-bio.org isn't responding here.

Is there a new URL we could use? Thanks!

Hi,

I just packaged up GRIT for GNU Guix, but I cannot include the package in GNU Guix upstream because the GRIT sources do not declare any license. Without an explicit free license the code falls under "all rights reserved" and thus is not Free Software and cannot be included in distributions that follow the GNU Free System Distribution Guidelines, such as Fedora, Debian, and Guix System Distribution.

Under what license are the GRIT sources released?

GRIT includes Hull, which appears to be released under the Expat license. Among compatible licenses for the combined work is the GNU GPL.

Cheers,
Ricardo

Python 2 is now EOL. Do you have plans to migrate grit to Python 3?
