Installing Python Eggs In Linux
Ok i am a little late to the party with these wonderful Python packages.. however installing them in Ubuntu (or any flavor of Linux) couldn't be easier. All you need is the python-setuptools package.
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
This package contains the easy_install command allowing you to install whichever egg you like using the following command.
sudo easy_install <.egg file>
If you don't want to install the package then you can get the source for easy_install from here. Once you are ready to get try some eggs have a look at www.python-eggs.org for links to loads of great resources.
