I often use virtualenv to keep right version of dependancies installed for a project.
virtualenv apps --distribute
The problem is that when using that, virtualenv keep installing distribute==0.6.19
I need each time to run first :
pip install distribute -U
Why is that and how can I make it install directly the right version of distribute ?
Thank you.
There was a similar question about updating pip on the python-virtualenv list. I’ve repeated here for convenience:
If you are using a recent virtualenv you can also use
--extra-search-diroption to point to an alternate directory containing thedistributepackage you wish to install. This is documented here:http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/index.html#the-extra-search-dir-option
User-provided extra-search-dir paths have precedence over the “builtin” search paths, so you should be able to achieve what you want
