Hi. There's an already installed with easy_install packet, let's say flup, to the home catalog: $ ls -la ~/python/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ total 176 drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 Nov 29 18:57 . drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 Nov 29 18:51 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 208 Nov 29 18:57 easy-install.pth -rw-r--r-- 1 134573 Nov 29 18:51 flup-1.0.1-py2.5.egg -rw-r--r-- 1 2362 Nov 29 18:51 site.py -rw-r--r-- 1 1853 Nov 29 18:51 site.pyc
