This project provides pre-built eggs for PyLucene and JCC on several operating systems, Python versions and Java runtimes combos.

PyLucene is a cool project but noticeably hard to build. Furthermore, it has specific issues such as hardcoding some Java libs paths in the build shared objects that would need to be addressed.

This project is trying to fix this and provide prebuilt eggs.

Another related project provides Windows Eggs : http://code.google.com/p/pylucene-win32-binary/

And these projects rely on PyLucene and could benefit from eggs:

• http://invenio-software.org/ and https://github.com/romanchyla/montysolr
• http://code.google.com/p/lupyne/ a pythonic wrapper around PyLucene
• ... As well as these other projects: http://code.google.com/hosting/search?q=pylucene
