Re: [SQLObject] Installation trouble...

Not sure whether this is the problem, but if setup.py attempts to
download the URL given below, it will come to a "dispatch" page where
you have to chose a mirror, not to the actual software.  

The URL for the SWITCH mirror in Zurich (this should be close to
you?) is
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sqlobject/SQLObject-0.3.tar.gz?use_mirror=switch

that replaces "?download" in the URL listed below with
"?use_mirror=switch"...  Not sure where to change this, but likely you
can edit setup.py...???

hope this works
