I need some help understanding how pip and yolk work
I ran pip install pymssql, which installed pymssql version 2.0.0b1-dev-20111019, but then decided that I’d like to revert to an older version.
I ran yolk -V pymssql to check which versions I have available, but it only returns pymssql 1.0.2. Shouldn’t the version that I installed appear too?
Searching pypi through the website reveals that 1.0.2 is the only version available. Does this mean pip is using sources other than pypi?
yolkonly search troughPyPIXMLRPC API as far as I know, whilepipcrawls the web looking for the “best” package that fits – the seed page ishttp://pypi.python.org/simple/<PACKAGE_NAME>.
