If you put this in your ~/.buildout/default.cfg, you'll get all eggs ever downloaded in ~/.buildout/eggs and all tarballs in ~/.buildout/downloads. So you won't have to download them yourself separately. ;)

The problem is not what I do. I am usually paranoid enough about breakage that I have everything I need to get stuff back up and running.

But sometimes I have people asking for support for a broken site/server, that are not as nitpicky about what they do.

Eg they expect to be able to rebuild Zope and other external products from a download, and so only have backed up the Products folder with their inhouse products.

Especially getting the correct external products can be a real pain.

What I am worried about is that it will be as big a pain to get the parts of a specific older buildout.


As far as I can see, buildout and eggs are being heralded as installers. Not only as "make" replacements for advanced developers only. That is my main worry.
