I was under the impression that virtualenv was no longer required?
An immediate problem I could think of, is integration of the dev
environment with tools like Eclipse (esp. for code
completion/debugging). As it stands, the eggs go in the ~/.buildout
directory. This would be different for virtualenv? How would one tell
Eclipse to share the same virtual environment? I have never used
virtualenv, so it's a bit intimidating :-)
Speaking of this, integration with Eclipse/pydev/Aptana is still not
easy, even with the existence of recipes to help out on that front.
There are just so many packages to add to the pythonpath. If I could
add an item to the wishlist...
Kind regards
