Re: [pygame] eggs. windows, and osx eggs?

["René Dudfield" <renesd@xxxxxxxxx>]

ah,

With a setup.cfg in the same directory we can do this...
[easy_install]
find_links=http://rene.f0o.com/~rene/stuff/macosx/


However that won't work if someone just types:
easy_install pygame

hrmm.  Must be someway to pass find_links in another way?


Another reason to try and remove the dependency on pyobjc in the next
release.  eek.
