On linux 'true' is a command:
That's not the issue. The point of STATIC_DEPS=true is to set an environment variable in the environment that easy_install is running in. So the problem here is not knowing how to invoke sudo (something like "ENV=val sudo -E cmd" would do the job on top of my head, not sure though - just "sudo -i" and then you have a normal root shell though). But that doesn't seem to be the point of this email here. If you want to help out with that you should probably find the thread on python-list and participate there. Regards Floris
