Hello,

I want to install a plugin (e.g. TracAccountManager)  from source, as
I need to modify the codes, so I can't use easy_install but I am a
python newbie...

E.g.

Currently I already have: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/
TracAccountManager-0.2.1dev_r4679-py2.5.egg installed

Now I downloaded the latest TracAccountManager source from trunk,
modified the codes, and then compiled:

python setup.py bdist_egg

>> generated TracAccountManager-0.2.1dev-py2.5.egg in dist folder (old package 
>> is named: TracAccountManager-0.2.1dev_r4679-py2.5.egg )

Then I copied the new file to the plugin folder, /usr/lib/python2.5/
site-packages/ (removed the old version first).

The problem is: I found the newly compiled plugin didn't work, so I
rename the new plugin to use the old plugin name

e.g.

mv TracAccountManager-0.2.1dev-py2.5.egg
TracAccountManager-0.2.1dev_r4679-py2.5.egg

Then everything is okay.

Why this is happening? Am I missing some important part?

Thanks.
