Doesn't the standard "python setup.py install" work with eggified packages anymore (meaning that the package is installed as normal site-packages package) ?
No. First, an eggified package tries to download ez_setup first, i.e. it won't do the distutils setup(), but the easy_install one. Then, "setup.py install" will not install into, say, site-packages/mxTools, but into site-packages/mxTools-2.0.3.egg/mxTools, and add, to easy_install.pth, the line /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mxTools-2.0.3.egg (which in turn adds this directory to sys.path) If you edit setup.py to use distutils setup instead of easy_install setup, it will install as before, but warn that setup() is being passed unrecognized parameters.
