Actually, I'm a bit unclear as to how to test this in a useful way: do you think it is sufficient just to test that the content of the script generated contains specific text (that doesn't guarantee the script that is generated actually works!)? Thanks Miles Jim Fulton wrote:
Much thanks. Can you also supply a test? Better yet, since you are a zope contributor, you could just check in the change, including the test.

Hi,
That's correct. This is a limitation in zc.recipe.egg; we're open to patches that improve the generated interpreter script.
Thanks for confirming, I wasn't sure if it was like that for a reason.
I attach a patch that fixes up some other parameters so the generated interpreter script's behaviour is less distinguis matches what you get when you start the python interpreter more exactly. Works for me, but I'd appreciate some more eyes...
