How to copy a recipe egg version for a specific piece

I added a section in my buildout to install python-ldap, as described here:

http://bluedynamics.com/articles/jens/python-ldap-as-egg-with-buildout

However, my build failed:

While: Initializing. Getting section buildout. Initializing section buildout. Getting option buildout:eggs. Getting section python-ldap. Initializing section python-ldap. Installing recipe zc.recipe.egg. Error: There is a version conflict. We already have: zc.buildout 1.4.2 but zc.recipe.egg 1.3.2 requires 'zc.buildout>=1.5.0'.

Why is buildout trying to get the latest version of zc.recipe.egg for this particular part, even if it is fixed in 1.2.2 in para versions?

I had exactly the same problem and I decided to remove it by uninstalling the Debian python-zc.buildout package that was installed on my computer with version 1.4.3.

You can bind all the eggs (no matter what they are used for) with the versions section. You should explicitly declare such a section, but then it applies to the eggs of the recipe:

 [buildout] ... # Other options in the buildout section omitted versions = versions [versions] zc.recipe.egg = 1.2.2

You can name the part that points to the version links as you want, but most people simply call its versions .
