Trac Agile plugin does not install

[ja11sop]

Yes this is a known issue with easy_install and subversion 1.5. There are really two options.

1. Follow the instructions at the bottom of this page AgileTracPluginInstall, and upgrade your easy_install.
2. Depending on your easy_install version you might be able to manually edit your setuptools (easy_install) package.

For the second option recent releases of easy_install fix 2 out of 3 bugs required to address subversion 1.5 support. The last bug is in setuptools/package_index.py. You should replace the existing implementation of '_download_html' with this one (line 627). The only change is the regular expression is fixed to handle the html returned by subversion 1.5.

    def _download_html(self, url, headers, filename):
        file = open(filename)
        for line in file:
            if line.strip():
                # Check for a subversion index page
                if re.search(r'<title>([^- ]+ - )?Revision \d+:', line):
                    # it's a subversion index page:
                    file.close()
                    os.unlink(filename)
                    return self._download_svn(url, filename)
                break   # not an index page
        file.close()
        os.unlink(filename)
        raise DistutilsError("Unexpected HTML page found at "+url)

Closing this issue as wontfix for now. Please report back if this works for you. Thanks for taking the time to raise the issue in the first place.
