Okay if you add "--site-dirs=/var/lib/python-support/python2.5" then this fixes this problem for both Nevow and simplejson on Hardy. PJE is investigating fixing this in a future release of setuptools.
In the meantime, he suggests that it might be a good fix for Debian/Ubuntu to add the following to the system-wide distutils.cfg file: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /usr/lib/python2.5/distutils/distutils.cfg [easy_install] site-dirs=/var/lib/python-support/python2.5 I've tested this on my Hardy box and it does indeed cause "easy_install" to do the right thing even without the "--site-dirs=/var/lib/python- support/python2.5" option on the command-line. -- easy_install will install a package that is already there https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
