I'm trying to install Review Board (http://review-board.org) with python-setup tools and "sudo easy_install ReviewBoard", but this fails as follows:
easy_install ReviewBoard Searching for ReviewBoard Best match: ReviewBoard 0.9.dev-20081202 Processing ReviewBoard-0.9.dev_20081202-py2.4.egg ReviewBoard 0.9.dev-20081202 is already the active version in easy- install.pth Installing rb-site script to /usr/bin

Unfortunately, the python-setuptools for CentOS 5 is version 0.6c5-2. I already have python-imaging-1.1.5-5 installed, but the configuration is trying to install PIL 1.1.6. I've never used easy_install/python-setuptools before (I'd never heard of it until I read the installation instructions for Review Board), so I don't know if it's possible to modify the configuration files to use PIL 1.1.5. Or if there is another/better way to install Review Board. So before I re-invent the wheel, has anyone else successfully installed Review Board on CentOS 5 and is willing to share their experience?
Thanks, Alfred

Oops, I guess I didn't read far enough down on the GettingStarted page. Thanks for pointing that out (I say with a red face).
