zip_safe=False not being respected?
Hi All, I'm trying to install a package into a Zope INSTANCE_HOME with: python2.4 setup.py install --home=$INSTANCE_HOME ...however, this is leaving me with an easy-install.pth and a .egg file in $INSTANCE_HOME, even though the package has zip_safe=False in its setup.py. What gives? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

...should have been "in $INSTANCE_HOME/lib/python". cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

Okay, so the .egg is actually a directory and not a file. ...and in there is lurking the package I'm trying install. Why all this convolution? Why not install the package where I actually asked it to go? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

By default, setuptools enabled setup.py's install eggs (either zipped or unzipped) so that you can multiple version installed (but only one active, of course). If you want to install just a single version as a standard python package directory, then use the --single-version-externally-managed option as described in the documentation: <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools#install-run-easy-install-...>.

What platform? --home is ignored on windows. Note that zope-safe has nothing to do with install location. Jim -- Jim Fulton Zope Corporation

Sorry, I didn't read your note carefully enough. --home says to use a unix-style layout rooted at the given directory. I believe you want --install-lib Jim -- Jim Fulton Zope Corporation

python2.4 setup.py install --install-lib=$INSTANCE/lib/python ...still gives me a .pth and .egg dir in $INSTANCE/lib/python, which isn't what I want as .pth files don't work in $INSTANCE/lib/python cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
