Interestingly, I *am* able to reproduce your problem, but only with your packages, though I honestly haven't tried many others. Anyway, I'll work on getting a variant of your patch into 0.6a8. >I'm still wondering why the advertised package dependency resolution >doesn't seem to work for me, though -- multi-version or not (mechanize's >dependencies ClientCookie, ClientForm and pullparser are not fetched): Hm. The '==dev' part is the problem. Doing a bit of research, I see that easy_install doesn't process dependencies for a package when its name and version don't match what's requested on the command line. I've unfortunately forgotten *why* it does this, though. The workaround for the moment is to request 'mechanize>=dev' or just 'mechanize', both of which will match any 'mechanize' version. Then the dependencies get processed. I'll have to look into it some more to see if I can figure out why I did what I did; I think it may actually not be necessary any more to have that restriction, if in fact it ever was. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
