#917: Upgrade from 0.7.12 fails: 'Failed to load application: No module named
slave.bot'

    Type:  defect  |      Status:  new      
Priority:  major   |   Milestone:  undecided
 Version:  0.8.1   |    Keywords:           
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
 Had a 10.5 slave with 0.7.12 on it.

 Upgraded 10.5 to 10.6.  Buildbot won't start anymore;
 "{{{pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: buildbot==0.7.12}}}".  Looking at
 paths later, it looks like the default python is now 2.6, not 2.5, so this
 is not too surprising.

 Updated the slave to 0.8.1.  Install the master at first because I forgot
 they were separate and was not paying attention.  Then installed the slave
 package.  Both had a custom --prefix=somewhere/in/my/home

 {{{buildslave start}}} failed with the 'No module named slave.bot' error.

 I re-ran the command to create the slave:

   buildslave create-slave . mymaster:9990 slavename pass

 and it had "updating existing installation" as the first line of its
 output, so it appeared to (successfully) upgrade something or other to
 0.8.1.

 Still {{{buildslave start}}} fails with the missing module reference.
