[aur-general] python packages as depends and easy_install

[Storm Dragon]

Hi,
I remember now why I was told to use git://. If I try the other way with https:// it wants a user name and password. I guess people who are behind a firewall that restricts git:// could edit the PKGBUILD so long as they have a github account?
Thanks
Storm
