The DNS problem is gone, but it still fails to remove the checkout. 
That's no surprise to me, even though I'm ignorant of exactly how Windows 
handles file permissions: Everybody here uses non-cygwin SVN on Windows, 
and wev'e all found we have to use rmdir /q /s to kill off SVN working 
copies (or use Windows explorer) -- eg. win32-compiled rm -rf from SF 
project Unxutils does NOT do the trick.

If I apply the following hack, the problem with removing the temp working 
copy goes away, but I still don't get dependencies downloaded or 
installed:

Because this distribution was installed --multi-version or --install-dir,
before you can import modules from this package in an application, you
will need to 'import pkg_resources' and then use a 'require()' call
similar to one of these examples, in order to select the desired version:

     pkg_resources.require("mechanize")  # latest installed version
     pkg_resources.require("mechanize==0.0.10a")  # this exact version
     pkg_resources.require("mechanize>=0.0.10a")  # this version or higher

Note no dependencies downloaded, contrary to the setup.py's 
install_requires declaration (included in my earlier post here)!

Any ideas?
