[09:01:33] <iivvoo> Getting distribution for 'ipython'.

[09:01:33] <iivvoo> An internal error occurred due to a bug in either zc.buildout or in a

[09:01:33] <iivvoo> recipe being used:

[09:01:37] <iivvoo> every day the same story

[09:02:15] <mgedmin> buildout/setuptools/distutils/whatever are finicky things :(

[09:36:27] <iivvoo> if I want to install a package specifically from github, not from pypi, what would be the correct way to do this?

[09:36:57] <iivvoo> mr.developer is currently the best tool for me but I don't think it's meant for this

[09:37:39] <mgedmin> really?

[09:37:52] <mgedmin> I thought that was exactly what it was meant for

[09:38:11] <mgedmin> personally, if I need to use unreleased software, I build an sdist locally, scp it to a web server somewhere

[09:38:28] <mgedmin> add that web server to [buildout] find-links, then pin the version number to my snapshot

[09:38:39] <mgedmin> (which has a custom version number that ends in something like .mg1)

[09:38:44] <iivvoo> well I'm not actually developing the package, I just need a newer/unreleased version
