I don't think TurboGears requires a specific version of setuptools (at least, it shouldn't). ez_setup.py, on the other hand, is designed for a specific version. If you already have setuptools installed, you need not run ez_setup. You can just run easy_install. (ez_setup is a bootstrap replacement for easy_install when you need to get things installed but don't yet have setuptools or, at least, the correct version of setuptools). Kevin
