I have been fighting with this for days!

As I understand it, I need easy_install to install TurboGears.  -  Fair
Enough.
But I need ez_setup.py to install easy_install.  -  Fair Enough.
But in order for ez_setup.py to run I need setuptools for Python.  -
Getting stupid now
And to install setuptools, I need to run ez_setup!!!!!! - What kind of
perverse circular logic is this sh!t!!

All I want to do is install TurboGears.  The server I want to install
it on have ABSOLUTLY NO ACCESS to the internet.  This is completely out
of my hands and in non-negotiable!!!

After fighting and cursing the [EMAIL PROTECTED] script I am finally here:
servername:/temp/folder/for/turbogears/eggsfiles # python ez_setup.py
-d /temp/folder/for/turbogears/eggsfiles
Downloading
/temp/folder/for/turbogears/eggsfiles/turbogearssetuptools-0.6c1-py2.4.egg
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "ez_setup.py", line 213, in ?
    main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "ez_setup.py", line 146, in main
    egg = download_setuptools(version, to_dir=tmpdir, delay=0)
  File "ez_setup.py", line 127, in download_setuptools
    src = urllib2.urlopen(url)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 130, in urlopen
    return _opener.open(url, data)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 350, in open
    protocol = req.get_type()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 233, in get_type
    raise ValueError, "unknown url type: %s" % self.__original
ValueError: unknown url type:
/temp/folder/for/turbogears/eggsfiles/turbogearssetuptools-0.6c1-py2.4.egg
servername:/temp/folder/for/turbogears/eggsfiles #

Why is this so hard!!  I realise I have only been using Linux for the
past three years, BUT WTF!!!!  I specified a directory so that it WOULD
NOT use a URL!!

Okay temper tanterum over now, just needed to release!

Now, how do I fix this and return to normal sanity!

Thanks
Bob
