It hasn't been tested much but I included a command in buildutils that does something like this. You can do easy_install buildutils, then: python setup.py bundle It will look at the requirements you list in setup.py, and include all the necessary eggs and try to patch up any executables to use the bundled eggs. I haven't actually used it seriously myself, but I'm interested in any bugs or feedback you have on it. -- Ian Bicking : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://blog.ianbicking.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
