This is an Ubuntu python (with distribute already installed), so not clean at all, my apologies for missing that. I tried to run it with a 2.6 virtualenv (with --no-site-packages) I have set up, but I get this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named ConfigParser and then this message: /home/faassen/projects/buildout-betafix/src/zc/buildout/easy_install.py:1232: UserWarning: Buildout has been asked to exclude or limit site-packages so that builds can be repeatable when using a system Python. However, the chosen Python executable has a broken implementation of -S (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/virtualenv/+bug/572545 for an example problem) and this breaks buildout's ability to isolate site-packages. If the executable already has a clean site-packages (e.g., using virtualenv's ``--no-site-packages`` option) you may be getting equivalent repeatability. To silence this warning, use the -s argument to the buildout script. Alternatively, use a Python executable with a working -S (such as a standard Python binary). warnings.warn(BROKEN_DASH_S_WARNING) Upgraded: setuptools version 0.6c11; restarting In the virtualenv I get the tests running more slowly (so they're doing more), and a ton of test failures; most do look shallow, such as when this extra message is emitted in the output: Upgraded: setuptools version 0.6c11; restarting. Generated script '/sample-bootstrap/bin/buildout'. Looks like I should try installing a fresh Python and try again.
