easy_install --always-copy and setup.py develop
I have a package (PasteDeploy) installed with "python setup.py develop", at version 0.9.7dev-r5544. There's a released version 0.9.6. When I do "easy_install --always-copy --install-dir /some/dir SomePackageThatRequiresPasteDeploy" it gives me errors like error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('PasteDeploy==0.9.7dev-r5544') (--always-copy skips system and development eggs) There is no requirement like that, it seems to be coming up with that version specifier on its own. If I try to install PasteDeploy specifically it works fine. If I remove that egg-link from develop it works fine. (Note: my end goal is to create a bundle of all the eggs that an app needs to run) -- Ian Bicking | ianb@colorstudy.com | http://blog.ianbicking.org

--always-copy currently tries to copy every distribution that was used to resolve dependencies for the explicitly requested installation target. I don't know of any way to fix this right off; unless somebody else has an idea it'll have to be left alone for now. :(
