It turns out that upgrading setuptools and distribute in the venv we use to build the mirror causes MySQL-python to error out. However, as of virtualenv 1.10.1, there's a new enough version of pip (1.4) so it's actually not necessary for us to explicitly upgrade. Change-Id: Ib08064ad1ce674323cd5dec87b7a9911c723d12a
Partial PyPI Mirrors
Sometimes you want a PyPI mirror, but you don't want the whole thing. You certainly don't want external links. What you want are the things that you need and nothing more. What's more, you often know exactly what you need because you already have a pip requirements.txt file containing the list of things you expect to download from PyPI.
pypi-mirror will build a local static mirror for you based on requirements files in git repos.
