-U tells easy_install to search the net *even if* a local version is available. Meanwhile, -f gives a list of *additional* URLs to search; it does not restrict easy_install from going to the net - especially if you use -U. Thus, if you want easy_install to do a minimal search (no net access unless a package isn't found locally at all), do *not* use -U, as the whole point of -U is to *force* easy_install to search the net. Finally, if you want to restrict easy_install from downloading *even if* a package isn't available locally, use the --allow-hosts option to restrict it to the desired hosts: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#restricting-downloads-with-allow-hosts http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#installing-on-un-networked-machines --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
