yes, thanks for suggesting that. i don't know much about buildout, and didn't give zc.sourcerelease a try yet, but i'll take a look at it. are the scripts you use to make self-contained tar balls and maybe even the build scripts for rpms available somewhere? i guess they would be of great help for me to understand how zc.sourcerelease works. greetings, jonas _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
