I have a package (PasteDeploy) installed with "python setup.py develop", at version 0.9.7dev-r5544. There's a released version 0.9.6. When I do "easy_install --always-copy --install-dir /some/dir SomePackageThatRequiresPasteDeploy" it gives me errors like error:
Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('PasteDeploy==0.9.7dev-r5544') (--always-copy skips system and development eggs)
There is no requirement like that, it seems to be coming up with that version specifier on its own.
--always-copy currently tries to copy every distribution that was used to resolve dependencies for the explicitly requested installation target.
I don't know of any way to fix this right off; unless somebody else has an idea it'll have to be left alone for now. :(
