easy_install will not connect through proxy

I’m running Ubuntu Server 10.04 64-bit under VirtualBox, and it seems that everything except easy_install and pip can connect to the Internet. I have set and exported the http_proxy environment variable, and also set up the proxy address in every other location I’m aware of. Yet easy_install always returns “Network is unreachable”:

:~$ echo $http_proxy

How to run easy_install in cygwin?

I am trying to install some package in cygwin’s python, but I’m getting the following error: “easy_install: command not found”.

I have tried to run “easy_install.py”, the result is also “easy_install.py: command not found”. I have tried to search the whole of cygwin’s /usr tree for anything named with the prefix “easy”, none found.

Am I missing something?…

How do I remove packages installed with Python’s easy_install?

Python’s easy_install makes installing new packages extremely convenient. However, as far as I can tell, it doesn’t implement the other common features of a dependency manager – listing and removing installed packages.

What is the best way of finding out what’s installed, and what is the preferred way of removing installed packages?…

Why use pip over easy_install?

A tweet reads:

Don’t use easy_install, unless you like stabbing yourself in the face. Use pip.

Why use pip over easy_install? Doesn’t the fault lie with PyPI and package authors mostly? If an author uploads crap source tarball (eg: missing files, no setup.py) to PyPI, then both pip and easy_install will fail. Other than cosmetic differences, why do Python people…
