I intend to release zc.buildout 1.5.0 Monday, August 23.

I used http://pypi.python.org/pypi/osc.recipe.sysegg/ to reliably grab specific system python packages (PIL, matplotlib, etc). That one is broken with 1.5.0, as it cannot find PIL and friends anymore.

Using the http://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zc.buildout/branches/1.4/bootstrap/bootstrap.py helps getting everything working (at least temporary).

osc.recipe.sysegg's problem is that a pkg_resources.require(egg) call doesn't find any of the system eggs anymore. Am I correct that that's one of buildout's changes? That the recipes are really totally isolated?


One thing I don't understand is why all my buildouts suddenly started failing: I've pinned zc.buildout in all my buildouts. Did the couple-months-old bootstrap.py (so: no svn:externals!) somehow manage to pull in a new buildout despite the version pin?

I had to go through a couple of projects to grab the 1.4 bootstrap.
