The following should work from a clean checkout: paver bootstrap source bootstrap/bin/activate python setupsconsegg.py install paver dmg -p 2.5 If that fails it's a bug. The first build is with python 2.6 if that's your default python, it's needed to make sure the docs are built from the exact same commit as the binary itself. > > 3) I found no v1.5.1 tag yet (yesterday).

In that case no, 1.5.1 will be tagged from the maintenance/1.5.x branch. The tag v1.5.1rc1 or v1.5.1 do not exist yet, tags are only created once the actual release takes place. So tag v1.5.1rc1 should appear tomorrow.
