distribute equivalent of "setup.py develop"?

Hi there, I've recently tried distribute, and much to my dismay found that it doesn't appear to contain an equivalent of "setup.py develop". Is such a thing planned, or, even better, available now? Thanks, Andreas

Ah, never mind. I had screwed up my install somehow--not sure. In any case, it seems all too easy to do that. As a plea to everyone on this list: please keep in mind that what you decide affects large numbers of package authors and an even larger number of users. Please give us the packaging stability we need. The well-being of the Python ecosystem is at your mercy. Be excellent to each other--and to your user community. Thanks for all your work, Andreas

We are well aware of that, thank you :P

You must be mistaken. Distribute definitely has such a command.
Thanks, Andreas
