-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've been working with virtualenv-0.8.4 on Linux, and found two bugs when using it to built environments outside the tree containing the source Python's 'lib' directory. My setup: - I have a custom-built Python, which I use for all Zope-related work, in '~/projects/Zope/bin/python'. - I also have a "virtual" Python, built from /usr/bin/python using the old 'virtual_python.py' script, in '~/bin/python'. - I was trying to use virtualenv.py to build out new environments under '~/tmp', using the "Zope" python as the "source" Python. The bugs: - This first one causes the 'exec_prefix' search to blow up if another lib directory *is* "above" the environment; the 'lib-dyload' from the "foreign" Python ends up on sys.path. - The next one is that distutils' attempts to parse 'config/Makefile' barfs. The attached patch fixes both, by adding 'lib-dynload' and 'config' to the set of things which are copied / linked into the target environment.
