</div>I've seen this behaviour when using buildout - I've never figured out<br>
why things get wedged thus, but buildout always seems to trigger it.<br>
<div><div></div><br clear="all"></div></blockquote><div>I don't use buildout, or virtualenv, or any of that stuff. I
double-checked (I use virtualenv on another box - made sure it wasn't
this one). <br>
<br>At this point, I have now built a brand new Python 2.6.5 from
source, ran its tests, installed it, did easy_install nose, and had the
very same exact issue. So I downloaded the nose source tarball and ran
its tests, and they all passed, so I did setup.py install, ran it again,
and got the exact same behavior. This is really frustrating :( <br></div></div><br>-- <br>Brian K. Jones<br>Python Magazine <a href="http://www.pythonmagazine.com">http://www.pythonmagazine.com</a><br>My Blog <a href="http://www.protocolostomy.com">http://www.protocolostomy.com</a><br>
