Ian,
Been playing with Python 2.6rc2. Have you tried virtualenv with it? Doesn't
seem to work for me, since it attempts to download a 2.6 version of the
setuptools egg, which doesn't exist. I glanced through the virtualenv source
(in between extreme busy-ness at work), and it looked to me as though
virtualenv would use a setuptools egg in /path/to/virtualenv.egg/support-files
if one existed, but that doesn't seem to happen. The EZ_SETUP_PY embedded
script seems to be the culprit, but I haven't dug into it any deeper than that
due to work demands.
It's quite possible I'm just missing something stupid. If so, feel free to
send me on my way.
Yes, the missing egg is causing the problem. ez_setup.py doesn't seem
to use a tarball fallback (I'm not sure why). Phillip - can there
either be a 2.6 egg uploaded, or have ez_setup.py install the tarball
when the egg is missing?
