[Plone-Users] Distribute and z3c.recipe.staticlxml

[Kees Hink]

I have a buildout with an lxml section which uses z3c.recipe.staticlxml On
buildout, i get "ImportError: No module named setuptools.command.easy_install"
(http://pastie.org/652836)

I was able to work around it by creating a virtualenv without Distribute,
installing the old setuptools in there, and using this Python version to do the
buildout.

I have read a recent announcement that a new "distribute" version
fixed a buildout incompatibility. Maybe, your problem is solved
by this new "distribute" version? If not, the "distribute" authors
might be interested to be informed about your problem to further improve
"buildout" support.

Dieter, a good suggestion. I had already posted on the project page
(http://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issue/66/setuptoolscommandeasy_install-doesnt-exist),
and the issue was resolved (in Distribute 0.6.5-dev). So a follow-up here is
appropriate.
