An easy and quick way is to use the working.py script to create a separate, clean Python environment and install TurboGears in this environment. The basic steps are: • Download workingenv.py. • Run python workingenv.py • source /bin/activate • Download tgsetup.py and run python tgsetup.py. • Install additional eggs, like nose, pysqlite, SQLObject, SQLAlchemy, etc. with easy_install is the name of a directory that workingenv.py should create, that will contain the new Python environment. Everytime you want to work with that environment, you need to carry out step 3. from above, so that the library mdoules and scripts from the environment are used.
