Vinay: I did a quick build and test using a non-default framework location and the virtual env set up by ./python -m virtualize test_dir worked just fine, just as the original virtualenv does with framework builds. So while we may find some nits down the road, I think the general approach is fine. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
