That's what I thought too but it contradicts what Mike Merickel is saying. He seems to be saying that the Pip package reimplements Distribute or something like that, and leads to conflicts if both Pip and Distribute are installed. When I'm using site-packages, I install Ubuntu's python-setuptools (really distribute), python-pip, python-virtualenv, and virtualenvwrapper. When I'm not using site-packages, well, I do the same but virtualenv installs a local distribute *and* pip into the virtualenv, or at least it says it does. -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
