Since this post is the top hit on Google for """pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: : Not Found for: (did you run python setup.py develop?)""", I thought should add the experience I just had using `virtualenv` and `paster create`. FYI, I use Jorge's setup of just installing setuptools and virtualenv site-wide. So, I created a new virtualenv, activated it and tried running `paster create -t pylons`. I kept getting the above error for a package I had created and later renamed a couple weeks ago. I was stumped because that package certainly wasn't in my new env, and it wasn't in my site- wide env (/usr/lib/python2.5). After poking for a while, I found an egg-info directory for the old package in my home dir. I must have moved it there as a backup for some reason that I now can't remember. Anyway, paster was seeing that egg-info dir and taking a crap. I rm'd the dir and now everything's all good. I'm now curious where all paster looks for eggs--I wouldn't have thought it would look in my home dir. -wlb --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
