[Distutils] Finding dependencies and Limiting download

Hi

I'm new with setuptools and probably asking wrong questions. :-)

I'm making RPM package from python-paste for CentOS 
Linux installation and came across some problems.

I do the installation with:

  setup.py install --root $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

and it seems to work pretty well, but it doesn't find
my already installed cheetah package below site-pacakges
and thus starts searching it from the net. Does the 
dependencies have to be installed as an egg so
that setuptools could find them? (I doubt that)

Second thing is that how do I limit the download using
'install' ? With 'easy_install' I could use --allow-hosts=None
or -H, but is it so that it's not available for 'install'?

Any help would be appreciated.

BR,

Tuju
