Hi guys, You can manually extract the files from the shapely installer (using e.g. Izarc or 7zip, or possibly just by renaming it as .zip or something), and put them in the right places. You need to put the shapely folder (from inside PURELIB) in e.g. C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\, and the geos.dll and libgeos-3-2-2.dll in I think C:\OSGeo4W\bin, although instead of installing those I seem to have got it working by editing C:\OSGeo4W\apps\Python25\Lib\site-packages\shapely\geos.py to use the lib from OSGeo4W instead (C:\OSGeo4W\bin\geos_c.dll).
For the record, there is also an open ticket (with a suggested script) for registering the OSGeo4W Python with Windows, so that python package installers can find it: http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/114 Regarding the profile tool plugin, Micha, it definitely runs on Windows. But on one of my machines I also got that error message about having no Qwt5. If I remember correctly, the problem was something like this: it requires the latest Qwt5 (or PyQwt5) in the OSGeo4W repository, but this machine only had an older version installed, and the OSGeo4W installer was not showing the latest version for some reason. I believe to fix it I uninstalled PyQwt5 and Qwt5, then reinstalled them.
