Does the setup.py include a setting for setup_requires that names PyYAML. I'm told that providing that option will make buildout handle this situation. (I've been meaning to add support for setup_requires to buildout, but haven't yet, but I'm told it works anyway. Perhaps setuptools is taking care of it for me. If so, thanks setuptools! :) Jim -- Jim Fulton _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
