I installed the 0.39 version of python-sybase using easy_install -m. That worked fine, but that version is extremely old. Is there a way to use easy_install with the a checkout from the project's version control system? I see this in the help output:

--local-snapshots-ok (-l) allow building eggs from local checkouts

but how do I specify the location of the local checkout?

Just "easy_install /path/to/checkout", assuming there's a /path/to/checkout/setup.py. (The -l option only enables the use of packages that were locally installed using 'setup.py develop'.)

Thanks,
