Cool :-)
we're using it
successfully on Launchpad right now to do something similar to what you
describe, but different. We allow site-packages through, so we get
system lxml and pyopenssl, for instance, but we explicitly get
distributions via buildout for the bits that are more closely tied to
the application, even if conflicting eggs are installed for the system.
We've only had the changes in place for a couple of weeks, but things
seem to be *much* smoother with them now.
Indeed. Sounds great. However, what do you do if the system installed
libraries are the wrong very (eg: the buildout specifies a particular
version, and the one in site-packages isn't it)?
