[Python-Dev] At least one package management tool for 2.7 (original) (raw)

I wonder if there are many people here who don't use some kind of "easy_install" package for package management in their Python / virtualenv installations? I propose to include at least one such package that is capable to auto-update itself in Python 2.7

C:~env\Python27>python.exe -m easy_install C:~env\Python27\python.exe: No module named easy_install

C:~env\Python27>python.exe -m pip C:~env\Python27\python.exe: No module named pip

It bugs me when I have to troubleshoot things on yet another machine that doesn't have some kind of setuptools installed. Or when I have to test some bug in my package on different Python version with a clean install and need some dependencies.
