ubuntu setuptools/virtualenv trips up Grok

[Martijn Faassen]

When on ubuntu you can install python-virtualenv (or python-setuptools). If you do so to create a virtualenv however, the virtualenv will *not* be isolated enough; z3c.autoinclude trips over speechd_config, and that's only installed as a system library.

This problem should be fixed in z3c.autoinclude, I think.

Seeing the same behavior on ubuntu 10.04.

I didn't used virtualenv tough (just plain buildout). The Speech Dispatcher configuration tool fires up upon starting paster:

$ bin/paster serve parts/etc/deploy.ini

Do you want to setup a completely new configuration? [yes] :

What else can I do to help?

[Michael Haubenwallner (d2m)]

Did you install the virtualenv with --no-site-packages option and did you 'source bin/activate' it?

Could you paste your 'bin/application_id-ctl' file for a look at your sys.path ?

Fixed with the help of zc.buildout 1.5.2 in grokproject >= 2.1 you don't have to use virtualenv anymore.
