I have merged the betafix branch to trunk and made the releases of zc.buildout 1.5.0, zc.recipe.egg 1.3.0, and z3c.recipe.scripts 1.0.0.
Here are some observations.
1. I had a line like this in my ~/.bashrc:
export PYTHONPATH="/home/aatiis/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/"
This was causing a "RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded" when running "python bootstrap.py", with Python 2.[4567]. So I had to remove this line; however, this issue seems to be related to the new bootstrap.py file only, coming from http://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zc.buildout/trunk/bootstrap/bootstrap.py
Huh, that's interesting. I was not able to dupe (I tried ``env PYTHONPATH=/home/gary/py/lib/python2.6/site-packages 26python bootstrap.py``, where 26python is a local Python). Could you give me a traceback? (Off-list, perhaps.)
2. The recipe called "djangorecipe" has a weird issue. The cause seems to be that it uses ``zc.buildout.easy_install.scripts`` instead of ``zc.buildout.easy_install.sitepackage_safe_scripts``.
Yeah. That's one we use too, and I intend to upgrade it eventually if no-one beats me to it.
he generated scripts have the following issue: Say I have PIL installed globally, and the generated script will have the global one's project root directory added to sys.path, instead of the one in the "eggs" directory (there *is* a PIL in the "eggs" dir, though). Now, my "./bin/django" looks like this:
#!/usr/bin/python2.6
import sys sys.path[0:0] = [ ... '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/PIL', ... ] ...
Why is the "PIL" added to sys.path?
As you and I said, it's the old code path, so all bets are off with a system Python. Wanna upgrade djangorecipe for me? :-) Anyway, in this case, I believe that particular spelling of the path has to do with how PIL is often installed. Gary
