need help with an egg

[jo]

Hi,

I am very new to python....

I created an egg on a machine. The Python version on that is 2.5.
Copied that egg to a machine which has Python 2.6.

unzip -t Myproj-0.1-py2.5.egg
The above command shows all the files I need

When I run the easy_install, I get the foll. error. Is it because of
the version? Or am I doing something wrong? Or the way I understand
the egg works is wrong. Can anyone please help?
If it's the version issue, does that mean I cannot use that egg on my
machine with 2.6 version?

Installed /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Myproj-0.1-py2.5.egg
Processing dependencies for Myproj==0.1
Searching for Myproj==0.1
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/Myproj/
Couldn't find index page for 'Myproj' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/
No local packages or download links found for Myproj==0.1
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse
('Myproj==0.1')

Thank you
Jo

Yes, eggs are (at least) python version specific. They can even be
OS-specific.
