The recipe run a pip install command with subprocess.call() (cant use main() directly because you use sys.exit()) then run zc.recipe.egg.Scripts with all eggs found in parts/name/lib/pythonXX/site-packages and src/. Works like a charm :) I’ve just started a buildout recipe for pip: http://www.bitbucket.org/gawel/gprecipepip/overview/

"For inexperienced user this package requires a pint of Python to be installed" (sounds like minced "Python" cocktail - not too brilliant for an ad, brobably, but illustrates what can happen to your site-libs over the time if you WON'T USE it) It also could be thought as an abbreviation of "Python INsTaller" without "s", because it doesn't install for Python for System, but rather system for Python. Missing "s" can be the Sign that pythonS are Silent Snakes that do not hiSS on inStall. How about “pint”?

I personally like not-zipped eggs as they let me read the source of libraries failing and/or poor documentation, it's great for development. two things:

If you are using HTTP proxying from a web server, it'll all be automatic so long as you start the server from within the environment.

Are there conventions for declaring dependencies in Perl? The Perl pip has a terrible search score -- if you just search for "pip" it hardly shows up at all. pip actually looks like it has some similarities. .p5i files are the same as pip requirement files, and .p5z are like pybundles.
