This is because we only add stable releases to our one-click installer.
We'll add the next stable TG release as soon as it comes out.

This won't work because it would require root access on the box.
Plus it would install this particular version globally, which we don't
want because different users want to use different versions.

To solve this problem we give each user their own little "environment"
using their HOME directory: we add $HOME/lib/python2.4 to everybody's
PYTHONPATH (using sitecustomize.py) and $HOME/bin to everybody's PATH.

That way each user can just put the python modules (or eggs) that they
need in their $HOME/lib/python2.4, and the corresponding scripts (TG
scripts for instance) in $HOME/bin.

So, to install the TG version that you want, all you have to do is to
use the "-d" and "-s" options of easy_install to tell it where to put
the eggs and the scripts:

easy_install -d $HOME/lib/python2.4 -s $HOME/bin -f

Remi.


PS: Note that this doesn't work right now because it gives the
following error:

$ easy_install -d $HOME/lib/python2.4 -s $HOME/bin -f
