hi, some time ago lines like these, where added to both tgdev and tg2 [easy_install] index_url = http://turbogears.org/2.0/downloads/current/index
I think this is harmful as it's misleading and confusing, because the behavior of easy_install will be different depending on the folder you are in. I have been bitten (and seen other people too) by this several times. For example if you have setuptools .8 and svn 1.5 $ python setup.py develop will break, since most of us now know setuptools .9 is the only one that works ok with svn 1.5 we'll write $ easy_installl -U setuptools and that fixes the problem, but it doesn't for TG as http://turbogears.org/2.0/downloads/current/index/setuptools/ doesn't have the .9 egg. another example of this is that there is no way to run an upgraded version of a library since "current" is supposed to be >trunk so the only reasonable way to run trunk with newer (not in the index) dependencies will be going outside the directory or deleting the 2 offending lines. So bottom line I think they should be deleted as they cause too much magic, easy_install is supposed to go to pypi that is how everyone understands it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears Trunk" group.
