I've just released zc.buildout 2.8.0 and the buildout.wheel extension. If you have zc.buildout 2.8.0 or later, and you include:
extensions = buildout.wheel In the buildout section of your buildout configuration, then buildout should be able to install distributions as wheels. This allowed me to install numpy using buildout, which wasn't possible before. This is a someone experimental version, which uses humpty to convert wheels to eggs. humpty in term uses uses distlib which seems to mishandle wheel metadata. (For example, it chokes if there's extra distribution meta and makes it impossible for buildout to install python-dateutil from a wheel.) Jim -- Jim Fulton http://jimfulton.info
