Hi All,

If I have a buildout.cfg such as:

[buildout] eggs = some.egg some.other.egg

...what's the correct way to find out what versiosn of these eggs buildout has selected and is using?

I read the output of "bin/buildout -v", where versions are shown. otherwise you can look at the result in your buildout: Buildout does not have an eggs section, it is probably used in another section, with ${buildout:eggs}. Are you installing a zope or a plone ? if so, the recipe that uses the eggs variable here, has probably created a script in bin/ where you will find something like: import sys sys.path[0:0] = [ some eggs ] So you can see which eggs were used, with their paths That would be 'zopepy' or 'instance' for a typical plone buildout for example Tarek

cheers,

Chris
