It's not egg_info that's the problem. The issue is running a setup.py that has a 'setup_requires' argument. If the required thing isn't installed, then setup.py goes looking for it. It just so happens in this case that 'egg_info' is the command, but you could've run 'setup.py --help' and the same thing would happen. You should make sure that tg-admin quickstart installs any setup_requires targets that are in the quickstart template, or else this will happen with every new project. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
