In cases like this, distributions packaging does make a difference, indeed, since most of the distributions have solved problems like this (installing offline) numerous times, and are already quite mature. Debian has loads of nice, well-architectured ways of doing so, for instance. BTW, the tarball for 0.9a9 is really good for me as a package maintainer now, thanks for having taken our comments into account! The only thing I missed were the docs, which I then grabbed from 0.9a8's one. In other news, TG 0.9a9 is in experimental, and since SQLAlchemy support is good, it may be going to unstable soonish (after some testing in experimental), using SQLAlchemy by default, at least untill SQLObject gets a real release for 0.7.1 out of the door, which could be a candidate for Etch's release.
