Preview version 0.9a1
venkatbo
'am a newbie to TG...
If I want to install the latest/greatest (PReview 0.9a1), do I need to:
. first instal the stable 0.8.9
. then upgrade to 0.9a1
OR
is it possible to directly install the Preview 0.9a1 version ?
When I tried a direct install (i686 Linux 2.4.x/Python 2.4.2) I get
the error below... Python2.4 was installed at /usr/local/Python2.4.
TIA,

Looks like the filename is coming up incorrect. You should be able to
directly install it as:
easy_install http://www.turbogears.org/preview/download/eggs/RuleDispatch-0.5a0dev-r2097.zip
(hypen rather than underscore)
and then re-run your easy_install for TurboGears now that the
dependency is satisfied.
There might be a better way but that's what I do when the dependencies
aren't where easy_install expects them.

Following your tip, these are the steps I took to instal 0.9a1:
1. easy_install -Uf
http://www.turbogears.org/preview/download/index.html --script-dir
/usr/local/Python2.4/bin TurboGears
This would fail as mentioned above.
2. Then I had to manually download the following two packages in order
(dependency):
easy_install
http://www.turbogears.org/preview/download/eggs/PyProtocols-1.0a0dev_r2082.zip
easy_install
http://www.turbogears.org/preview/download/eggs/RuleDispatch-0.5a0dev-r2097.zip
3. Then I re-ran the command in (1). This then caused it to continue
from where it left off, and complete install.
HTH others looking for a fix.
Regards.
