Also, add ``#egg=project-version`` link support, and docs on how to make your package available for EasyInstall to find. --HG-- branch : setuptools extra : convert_revision : svn%3A6015fed2-1504-0410-9fe1-9d1591cc4771/sandbox/trunk/setuptools%4041135 --- EasyInstall.txt | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) (limited to 'EasyInstall.txt') diff --git a/EasyInstall.txt b/EasyInstall.txt index fb72b14c..33e23f09 100755 --- a/EasyInstall.txt +++ b/EasyInstall.txt @@ -623,6 +623,22 @@ Known Issues Made ``easy-install.pth`` work in platform-specific alternate site directories (e.g. ``~/Library/Python/2.x/site-packages``). + * If you manually delete the current version of a package, the next run of + EasyInstall against the target directory will now remove the stray entry + from the ``easy-install.pth``file. + + * EasyInstall now recognizes URLs with a ``#egg=project_name`` fragment ID + as pointing to the named project's source checkout. Such URLs have a lower + match precedence than any other kind of distribution, so they'll only be + used if they have a higher version number than any other available + distribution. (Future versions may allow you to specify that you want to + use source checkouts instead of other kinds of distributions.) The ``#egg`` + fragment can contain a version if it's formatted as ``#egg=proj-ver``, + where ``proj`` is the project name, and ``ver`` is the version number.
