I've never known of transactions in anything to do with setuptools... I wasn't literally referring to a "transaction", in the ZODB sense -- I meant, "install using a separate run of easy_install'. Unless I'm missing something, that seems... sub-optimal.
So I have to do easy_install package x, edit a config file, then easy_install package y, rinse and repeat?!
A call with different options is sufficient....
That still seems a bit ropey... Have all the things that have lead to buildout/kgs/etc been brought to the attention of the distutils sig? This *must* be a problem that all decent sized python frameworks are facing. How are other communities solving this problems? What's the "standard" way of solving this problem in the python world? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
