[Pytest-commit] Issue #128: install_command doesnt interpolate {toxinidir} (hpk42/tox)

New issue 128: install_command doesnt interpolate {toxinidir}
https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/tox/issue/128/install_command-doesnt-interpolate

Ronald Evers:

I'm running into a wall trying to make pip use a custom ssl ca bundle with tox. I ended up trying to customize the install_command like so:

    install_command=pip install --pre --cert={toxinidir}/my_ca_store.pem {opts} {packages}

But it appears tox is not interpolating the {toxinidir} construct in there and is just the command with "--cert={toxinidir}" in the command literally. See the output below. Am I missing something or is this a bug? By the way, it does work when I use an explicit and absolute path like so: "--cert=/Users/ronald/.../my_ca_store.pem".


```
#!python

```

As you can see, it does interpolate the "{packages}" but not the "{toxinidir}".
