I'm perhaps running buildout in a bit of unusual fashion (from my

checkouts of one of my builds (see previous message).
I was suprised when all my zc.recipe.cmmi deps were recompiled. not
a huge deal due to the unusual circumstances, but seemed avoidable.
I realize my upgrade is dependent on my virtualenv setup and was
wondering if there is some standard way to upgrade a build's
buildout version while avoiding unnecessary rebuilding.
Buildout is very conservative about rebuilding things -- erring on the
side of rebuilding. IOW, if in doubt, builout will rebuild a part.
When you upgrade buildout, it's possible that a change in buildout
will affect how a part is built, so upgrading generally results on
parts being rebuilt. There isn't currently a way to prevent this.
