Only the script recipe seems to support it at the moment and it didn't look
from the documentation that such a globally-found dependency would be valid for
the entire buildout (and all the other parts). If I use that osc.recipe.sysegg
and list that part first, it makes sure all other parts use the specified
system eggs.
But then you are susceptible to many problems that occur in system Pythons that
I've been debugging for this release.
Ok, you're trying to tell me not to do something, only I don't know what
that "something" is :-)
Do you mean it is a bad idea to use "matplotlib from the system
packages" for the whole buildout? That it is better just to use it in
the two or three parts where it is needed?
It's not like I want my system matplotlib in one part and a locally
failing-horribly buildout-installed matplotlib in another part.
The current implementation makes it look like every single part that
needs the system matplotlib needs to have a configuration for "look in
the system for matplotlib".
Ah! Did I perhaps misunderstand the 1.5.x changes? I'm used to have
osc.recipe.sysegg pick two or three specific system eggs and add just
those to the sys.path. Does the 1.5.x functionality only have a generic
switch to switch on ALL system eggs?
I'm getting lost :-)
Which django recipe do you use, by the way? I intend to update djangorecipe,
using some changes that Attila made.
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/djangorecipe
Just a minute ago, I tried experimenting with a z3c.recipe.egg part mentioned as the
first one, but I got an "ImportError: Entry point ('zc.buildout', 'default') not
found".
If you can help me dupe, I'm happy to look at it.
I'll look in to it after next week. Two sites have a deadline then. So
I'm happy with the 1.4.x-only bootstrap.py :-)
