I'll try again with the options you show.
Note that this means you can use the above URL as your "Download URL" for PyPI; I just specified it using -f because that's not what you currently have up as the link on PyPI. The -n is because I didn't want to *actually* install leo, and the -v was for verbosity. If you update your "Download URL" you should be able to simply "easy_install leo" and have it work. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
