Error Installing Askbot

Hi,

I'm getting following error :


pip install askbot

Downloading/unpacking askbot

Cannot fetch index base URL http://pypi.python.org/simple/ Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement askbot

No distributions at all found for askbot Storing complete log in /home/chetanpatil/.pip/pip.log


Please let me know the issue. I'm on Fedora 15.

Even on fourth day since I encountered the issue, same output. Not able to understand why its happening? May please tell if "pip install askbot" works for others ?

yes, I tested from my laptop and failed the first time but then it worked, network issues with my crappy internet, I tried later with a dedicated server and worked just fine.

I have tried same command on three different network, one with proxy and other two dedicated IP networks. Don't know whats the issue is. If more people are facing the same issue then documentation needs an update.

Works for me, there must have been a network error, or pypi went down, which happens occasionally.
