pip install prctl==1.6.1 failing

[Matthew Stoltenberg]

Apparently, https://pypi.python.org/simple/prctl/ is missing the 1.6.1 tarball

+1 on this

workaround for anyone getting here, you can do:

pip install git+git://github.com/seveas/python-prctl.git@v1.6.1

@seveas do you know, is this a matter of just taking the release tarball from https://github.com/seveas/python-prctl/releases/tag/v1.6.1 and uploading it to pypi? Would you like some help maintaining that? I'd be willing to take a shot at it

hey, I think I was just being dense or something, it's working fine if I do:

pip3 install python-prctl==1.6.1

sample python code

import prctl
prctl.set_name("test")

[Daniele Viganò]

prctl != python-prctl

Latter can be installed via

$ pip install python-prctl

You'll need to install the correct package, as @daniviga points out.
