Running python setup.py develop on Ubuntu Natty doesn't work. PIL doesn't get compiled with jpeg or png support. This happens with both the virtualenv and buildout instructions.

Doing a Google search leads to the following interesting urls:

This is a big deal because it means people using Ubuntu Natty can't run GNU MediaGoblin.

I add

[app:mediagoblin] ... db_port = 27017

to use a custom mongod port (it wasn't finding the running one and I don't know which is the default it tries).

I get

  File "/home/spaetz/src/mediagoblin/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.4-py2.7.egg/paste/deploy/util/fixtypeerror.py", line 57, in fix_call
    val = callable(*args, **kw)
  File "/home/spaetz/src/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/app.py", line 118, in paste_app_factory
    app_config.get('db_host'), app_config.get('db_port'))
  File "/home/spaetz/src/mediagoblin/eggs/mongokit-0.6-py2.7.egg/mongokit/connection.py", line 52, in __init__
    super(Connection, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/pymongo/connection.py", line 242, in __init__
    raise TypeError("port must be an instance of int")
TypeError: port must be an instance of int

I guess there is a missing int() wrapper somewhere.

This is probably not gonna happen for a long time, but I would love to lobby for openID support at some point. I love the way you can e.g. register at this redmine instance, prefilling your user data and not needig a separate password.

There are a ton of openID providers out there already, yahoo, google, launchpad, facebook(?), etc., so everyone has one already.

Feel free to assign this to a "way in the future" wishlist milestone.
