Is there a way to do find-links in buildout? I think so, maybe named something like find-links.
Yep.
Then you'd point at a page that has the link with #egg=.... IIRC you have to point find-links at a real HTML page.
Right. But I don't have such a page. Basically, I want my buildout to track e.g.: http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plone.portlets/trunk This having a setup.py and I hope other necessary info to check it out and build it. What would I need in terms of find-links for this to work?
I sometimes put on in svn (maybe actually in the buildout), and point it there. Annoying part is you have to commit it to test. buildout, kind of like install_requires, I think needs you to give it something it can actually fulfill. So you'd need Foo==dev,>1.1 or somesuch.
You mean in buildout's list of eggs-to-install? Basically, my buildout.cfg now has: find-links = http://download.zope.org/distribution/ http://effbot.org/downloads eggs = elementtree python-yadis python-openid python-urljr I believe I can do foo==dev or whatever in that list of eggs as well. But I'm not sure how that relates to svn link above. Martin
