Having trouble installing self built package and install_requires

[blueslow]

You could start here : https://docs.python.org/2.7/py-modindex.html

Good.

The easiest way of knowing: if you had to install it separately, it-s a third-party module.

Yes that could work for me,if I could remember, but does not necessarily work for somebody else.

The only third party module you've listed there is nose, and that probably belongs in tests_require, rather than install_requires.

Yes that is better, but please se below regarding argsparse.

Is better if you use wheel format.
Command:
python setup.py bdist_wheel
Then is pip install some_module.whl

I agree, it's newer and faster, however I did test that and that gave the same error. Therefore I decided to start with sdist to get that working.

The point is not knowing what all stuff is in standard library.
Just knowing what's pip installed is enough,
using virtual environment make this a lot easier.
Then pip list pip freeze do show.

I agree that virtual environment make its easier.

Thanks to all of you, however this does not seem to be the complete solution to specify dependencies. E.g. I added argsparse that is specified  https://docs.python.org/2.7/py-modindex.html it still works to install. With the solutions suggested I can figure it out for my machine, but will it works for other peoples machines if I upload it to PyPi or github and they download it and install it?
