[Zope3-Users] zope3, site-packages and easy_install

[Michael Haubenwallner]

a short question on using eggs and zope3 dev/checkout together

had a case yesterday: easy_installed zope.schema (and automatically its 
dependencies)

easy_install adds its paths in front of all other paths to sys.path
-- this broke my zope3 svn checkout; first sign:  bin/zopectl debug 
didn't work anymore

what should one suggest for development ?
- using zope3 checkout with its own python interpreter
- or remove site-packages from zope3 sys.path

what to do in deployment environment ?
- using zope3 deploment with its very own python interpreter
- you never now when anyone will add another piece to site-packages

i think this will affect buildouts too as they rely on a common python 
install.
