I've got a work around though: If I import pkg_resources before starting my twisted app it seems to fix the problem. (I presume that get_platform's output is being kept somewhere, Environment's __init__ args I think.) cheers, Michae

Yes, in general it's best to import pkg_resources sooner rather than later. :) If you're running an application using a script generated by easy_install, this is taken care of for you, as pkg_resources gets imported in order to set up sys.path with the script's requirements.
