The infrae recipe allows one do an svn co in parts/arbitrary_folder.
Down in the hierarchy of checked out folders, there is a setup.py file.
What I wanted to do is create a Python sandbox where to deploy those yet
to be developed eggs.  What I succeeded in doing now is install a
virtualenv sandbox and build the eggs from the svn co using the sandbox
Python.  When I found out about the Infrae recipe I figured there should
be a way to build the eggs from the source.

I'll go hunt for a recipes tutorial :-)  Thanx for your time.
