Automatic installation of eggs required by an egg extra doesn't seem to
work for a recipe used with zc.buildout as documented for eggs in general:
Suppose myrecipe has two entry points, the "fancy" one employing
yourrecipe. Now if I declare yourrecipe as an extra requirement only to be
installed if the "fancy" entry point is used to install any buildout part:
myrecipe/setup.py:
...
setup(...
entry_points={"zc.buildout": [
"default = myrecipe.foo:Recipe",
"fancy = myrecipe.bar:Recipe [bar_extra]",
]},
extras_require={"bar_extra": ["yourrecipe"]},
...
)
and use myrecipe I get a pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound error
concerning yourrecipe. It sort of works if I manually copy the yourrecipe
egg to the eggs directory beforehand, though.
Is this a real bug, or are recipes supposed to be so simple as to not need
extras?
