Meanwhile, you're satisfied already with actually looking at setup.py of the develop package and then repeating the version number *too*. It's fascinating how people look differently at these things, isn't it?

Heh. We have buildouts where multiple versions of a package are used by different parts of what's built. There's a real value in separating the meanings of "develop" and version requirements. We also typically work with the following settings, just to make sure we don't leave any information out of our build configuration: [buildout] allow-picked-versions = false use-dependency-links = false Having to repeat on ocaission isn't wonderful, but it's actually pretty unusual, and far better than leaving something out that can't be recovered later. -Fred -- Fred L.
