first attempt at "paster quickstart" crashes

[teamnoir]

I've just made my first attempt to run "paster quickstart" and it's
crashed.

I'm not sure what this says about turbogears.

I'm sure it says something about you not knowing that python packages
can't contain dashes because

foo-bar

is interpreted as "take foo and subtract bar from it".

Thus it can't be imported, and trying so causes all kinds of problems.

About TG it says that me might consider putting some validation code in
there that prevents this from happening.

well, actually this validation shouldnt be necessary, as you can
expect people to at least have a minimum of python understanding, such
as giving valid names to variables and packages. I dont think its your
job to validate this stuff. Remember the python "we are all consenting
adults" thingy.

btw: this post is some funny shit :P
