So have some make-festing we found out the source of the problems: - HACKING.txt was missing python-oops-twisted in the list of runtime packages. - dependencies are resolved from the eggs cache first, so make sure you nuke that one (look in ~/.buildout/defaults.cfg) for the location, otherwise it sits in eggs/ in the source directory by default. Once that extra package is installed and the existings eggs cache removed, every things seems to be working properly. -- Francis J. Lacoste [email protected]
