You might need to install it via your OS's native package manager (apt, portage, yum, etc.) Once it's in your system's site-packages, easy_installing into a working-env will just put in an entry in easy_install.pth pointing to the system one instead of trying to download and install it there. For a few packages, I've also had to build my own eggs. It's usually a matter of grabbing the source, changing distutils to setuptools in its setup.py and running 'python setup.py bdist_egg'. Then you do 'easy_install whatever.egg' I also seem to remember having some problems getting the right versions of sqlite and pysqlite packages installed on an Ubuntu box, but haven't had any problems with it in other places. -- anders pearson : http://www.columbia.edu/~anders/ C C N M T L : http://www.ccnmtl.columbia.edu/ weblog : http://thraxil.org/
