downloading eggs

i'm trying to just download the turbogears eggs without installing it. i've
read the turbogear install instructions and the easy_install help.
from the easy_install web site:

If you have another machine of the same operating system and library versions
(or if the packages aren't platform-specific), you can create the directory of
eggs using a command like this:

easy_install -zmaxd somedir SomePackage

i tried this:
C:\python\turbo gears>easy_inst all -zmaxd TurboGears TurboGears
Processing TurboGears
error: Couldn't find a setup script in TurboGears
C:\python\turbo gears>easy_inst all -zmaxd . TurboGears
Processing TurboGears
error: Couldn't find a setup script in TurboGears

on the turbogears mailing list, someone posted this:

You could even do "easy_insta ll -zmaxd TurboGears" at home to just
download the files and then bring in the files on a usb key and then
"easy_insta ll -f . TurboGears" from the usb drive.
i tried this:

C:\python\turbo gears>easy_inst all -zmaxd TurboGears
error: No urls, filenames, or requirements specified (see --help)
i copied the ez_setup.py file from turbogears and tried the commands against
that script but it didn't work. i'm using setuptools-0.6c2 if that is helpful
to anyone.
thanks,

bryan

There are a couple of broken links on the Python Eggs site: http://www.python-eggs.org/links.html I'd like to reach the maintainer and report them, but there's no information about the maintainer on the page. Does anyone know who the maintainer is, and how to reach him/her?

I have been using distuils for a while and was wondering when Python Eggs (new project) is better? So basically Python Eggs precompiles and compresses binaries for you so you just have to load it to run your app? Chris

It appears that apps distributed as Python Eggs are either a single compressed blob in site-packages directory or a directory under site-packages directory. Is this ALWAYS true? So by just erasing stuff under site-packages I can do a COMPLETE uninstallation of an Egg? Chris

I'm trying to install a program that uses Durus on a server. It appears that if a Python program uses eggs, it creates a ~/.python-eggs/ directory, so the home directory must be writeable. This conflicts with server environments where you want to run a daemon with minimum privileges. Second, it appears to use the real user ID rather than the effective user ID to choose the home directory. In this case I'm trying to use start-stop-daemon...

Eggs are important to Python and will become more so over the next few years, if understood and embraced by the community. They are a key competitive feature - I've been asked so many times what is the Python equivalent to CPAN and finally we're developing an answer. At PyCon 2007 we need a solid set of talks about eggs, broken down into just using them, how to build and distribute them, and then an advanced talk on some of the more...

....at least around here. I run a corporate Open Source Software Toolkit, which makes hundreds of libraries and apps available to thousands of technical employees. The rules are that a) a very few authorized downloaders obtain tarballs and put them in a depot and b) other users get tarballs from the depot and build from source. Historically, python packages played well in this context. Install was a simple download, untar, setup.py...

Hi all! As is about to become apparent, I really don't know what I'm doing when it comes to using eggs. I'm writing some software that is going to be deployed on a machine as a number of eggs. Which is all well and good. These eggs all end up depending on each other; modules in egg A want to import modules in egg B etc.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
