Problem with a mid-aged buildout. Command pip works , but not via buildout

Hi all,
I've a mid-aged project with a buildout build 2 years ago with plone 4.3
I'm trying to install a new add-on but via bin/buildout -N I obtain

[...]
Installing debuginstance.
lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/init.py:188: RuntimeWarning: You have iterated over the result of pkg_resources.parse_version. This is a legacy behavior which is inconsistent with the new version class introduced in setuptools 8.0. In most cases, conversion to a tuple is unnecessary. For comparison of versions, sort the Version instances directly. If you have another use case requiring the tuple, please file a bug with the setuptools project describing that need.

Getting distribution for 'z3c.saconfig'

I 've try to pin zc.buildout & setuptools with no success.
Any advice?
Thanks

The output seems fine so far. Is there an error or do you just ^C out of it upon the first more verbose message?

Provide the full traceback and not only a snippet.

Thanks,
the buildout command "fails" with that output :frowning:

You may correct your buildout configuration to

[buildout]
index = https://pypi.org/simple/

Yep, works :slight_smile:

Thank you
