ImportError: cannot import name spec about py-amqp

[bastbnl]

I believe it has to do with the imports within the amqp module.

I've done some changes to get the code imported on python 2.7.3 and created pr #88. My virtualenv has vine 1.1.0, kombu 3.0.35 with celery 3.1.23 (and a lot more). I needed one more change to get celery 3.1.23 running with amqp 2.0.0 as well, but I'll create a separate pr for that

Before Python version 2.7.7, the struct.pack() function required a native string as its format argument.

anyone can check it? @ask

I'm seeing the same message using python 2.7.3 using amqp==2.0.0 since I've upgraded amqp-1.4.9 this morning.

...
from amqp import ChannelError, ConnectionError, ResourceError

Hey!

Kombu 3.x should not be used with amqp 2.0, and the kombu requirements have reflected this since the release of 3.0.0:
https://github.com/celery/kombu/blob/3.0/requirements/default.txt

If you use kombu 3.x, you should keep to the 1.4 series of py-amqp!

[ask]

That said, I don't know if kombu 3.x is actually incompatible, and I don't understand why this error is happening.

The earliest 2.7 version I have available is 2.7.8 and importing amqp.spec works there. Same for 2.7.10.

Could you try to do a pip install vine to see if that helps?

Actually we rely librabbitmq==1.6.1,

but librabbitmq rely amqp>=1.4.6
