No problem. I've added a note about this to the docs in CVS now. By the way, I've also just checked in 0.6a6, which I think should be able to handle all the custom Unix install stuff you can throw at it. It's a major update to the installation instructions, and a 'virtual-python' script based on Ian's contribution is included. And of course there are various bugfixes, etc. I'd appreciate it if you could take it for a spin on a few platforms before I release it, since TurboGears users seem to be my biggest group of "customers" at the moment, especially for non-root Unix installs. And of course, I'd love to get feedback from anybody else, not just Kevin. :) _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
