affinitic.recipe.fakezope2eggs 0.4

ZC Buildout recipe to fake zope 2 packages as eggs.

Zope 2 isn't eggified yet, Zope 3 does. That can become a problem if you want to install some egg with depedencies related to Zope 3 eggs (such as zope.interface, zope.component, ...)

This buildout recipe will simply add some fake egg link to zope libraries (installed inside zope/lib/python/zope/...) so that setuptools can see that the dependencies are already satisfied and it won't fetch them anymore.

Just add it to your buildout config like this:

[buildout]

parts =
    ... your other parts ...
    fakezope2eggs

[fakezope2eggs]
recipe = affinitic.recipe.fakezope2eggs

Be careful to run this recipe after the plone.recipe.zope2install recipe.

You might also want to add other fake eggs to your buildout, to do so use the additional-fake-eggs option, for example:

[buildout]

parts =
    ... your other parts ...
    fakezope2eggs

[fakezope2eggs]
recipe = affinitic.recipe.fakezope2eggs
additional-fake-eggs = ZODB3
