Everything via easy_install.  Really, almost everything except perhaps 
some slightly tricky modules like MySQLdb; you are a developer, not just 
an OS user, and anytime you install from the OS you are stuck to their 
upgrade cycle, and their upgrade cycles aren't based on stability or 
availability or anything that would matter to you or improve your 
development situation.
