==Non-admin setup?==
It seems that setup.py requires admin privileges to the install directory.
What am I doing wrongly? Is there a way to run it without setup.py?
<pre>[david1@brownsea ~]$ virtualenv pyCaveExplorer
New python executable in pyCaveExplorer/bin/python
Installing setuptools.............done.
Installing pip...............done.
[david1@brownsea ~]$ cd pyCaveExplorer/
[david1@brownsea pyCaveExplorer]$ python setup.py develop
running develop
error: can't create or remove files in install directory
The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/test-easy-install-5825.write-test'
