Hi
I am having tremendous trouble with extending ZopeSkel and need some help.
How would one setup ZopeSkel for development and at the same time have it
installed in site packages? I am using Mac OS X if that is relevant.
Use
python setup.py develop
Preferably in a virtualenv.
I had previously installed ZopeSkel in my local site packages so I figured I
could create a virtualenv and install it in development mode there. This does
not work. I can install PasteScript in the virtualenv but it will pick up the
templates from my global ZopeSkel instance. Even worse, then global
templates have precedence over my local ZopeSkel copy.
Create your virtualenev with --no-site-packages.
I am not sure if using buildout in this case is any better, I read on plone.org
that I might need to uninstalling ZopeSkel from the global site just to get the
example working. And uninstalling eggs is not quite as easy as installing them.
Buildout would be another option, but probably overkill.
