Call to `pbr.version.VersionInfo` raises exception on import about apidoc HOT 7 CLOSED

For future record, this is a manifestation of https://bugs.launchpad.net/pbr/+bug/1758301

from apidoc.

How is the extension being installed in the image?

from apidoc.

Thanks for the quick response!

In each case it's with pip.

When the base images are built, it's with pip install --upgrade -r ….

I've also tried reinstalling it when the final container is running, just before building the docs:

pip uninstall -y sphinxcontrib-apidoc
pip install sphinxcontrib-apidoc

from apidoc.

That's very odd.

I don't see the plugin in the pip freeze output above. Was that output produced from a run where you had the plugin disabled? Or is that from before it is installed?

Is the source repo you're working with available to check out so I can try and reproduce this locally?

from apidoc.

Argh, the log viewer doesn't seem to reliably show the entire output.

I trimmed things down and ran a smaller failing example. It won't build the complete docs because of missing dependencies, but Sphinx should exit without an error.

Here's what I'm seeing now:

I still can't reproduce the problem on my machine if I run docker build -f Dockerfile ., though I wonder if it would be reproducible on a different mac or a Linux system…

Right now my best steps to reproduce are pretty sprawling, unfortunately:

1. Hook up a Zeit Now account to a github repo
2. Create a docker repo
3. Update https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/dev.py#L34-L35 to point to that repo
4. Run ./dev.py docker-build debug-1 (or whatever tag you want to use)
5. Run ./dev.py docker-push debug-1
6. Update Dockerfile to point to that repo and tag
7. Push to github to trigger Zeit deploy

Added: It works fine on another mac.

These are the most important bits:

• https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/docker/entente-ci/Dockerfile.py2.7
• https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/requirements_dev.txt
• https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/requirements.txt
• https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/Dockerfile
• https://github.com/lace/entente/blob/debug-minimal/doc/conf.py

The simplest command that reproduces the problem is:

python -c "import pbr.version; print pbr.version.VersionInfo('apidoc').version_string()"

from apidoc.

Try applying the patch in #10 to see if that helps.

from apidoc.

That does the trick. What an odd way for that to manifest! I appreciate your help!
