Codespeak.net is down and something, somewhere in my buildout wants to easy_install lxml from it, despite me boopstrapping with pip, having it installed already and removing it from my buildout files.
How else can I get round this?
A first way is to look at your buildout directory: you probably have an eggs/ subdirectory in there. Put your existing lxml egg in that directory and buildout should pick it up.
A second, slightly more permanent, way is to tell buildout to use a cache directory. In your home dir, make a “.buildout” directory with a “default.cfg” in it:
Also create those eggs/downloads/configs subdirectories. Now you can place your existing lxml egg in that eggs/ directory and buildout should pick it up.
