Attachment: fix buildbot ospi packages

It seems that the easy_install egg/info format of packages have broken it.

This patch fixes it. It probably seems bad to use --old-and-unmanageable - but this ends up putting Buildbot into a predictably named directory, that doesn't change with version. This future proofs this package a bit.

Tested this on win32-slave03 and it worked fine.

Looks plausible but I'm not sure exactly what the problem is you're trying to solve. Trying to install a buildbot which differs in content but not version doesn't work when eggs are in play ?

Ah, sorry for the poor explanation. The package is currently broken because it can't find the InstallDir after running setup. It ends up going in something like...: .../site-packages/buildbot-0.7.10p1-py2.5.egg. Using --old-and-unmanageable puts it in in ../site-packages/buildbot - which is predictable and won't change every time the Buildbot version gets bumped. Does that help?
