There's a big problem in our ecosystem: PyPI + our various installers don't have the concept of "beta" release. Any new release is considered to be the latest release.
buildout does. :)
buildout has a prefer-final option.
I think it's another need (buildout vs libs).
I have no idea what you're trying to say.
Another point, with this feature activated, some eggs aren't downloadable (thanks to the stupid name chosen by the developers)
Could you be more specific, say with an example? If the prefer-final option is used, buildout should still download a non-final distribution, if no final distributions are available. Jim -- Jim Fulton
