TurboGears 0.8.7 is out and available for download.

This update primarily solves installation issues and is not required otherwise.

quickstart corrected to properly produce egg-info directories (previously, directories could be created with “-” when it should have a “_”). Note that setuptools 0.6a9 will warn you if you have a – in your egg-info directory name. Just rename the directory, and you’ll be fine.
Installation issues that people may have had earlier are resolved in this setuptools update.
version number set to 0.8.7 to reflect that this is considered the “stable” version of TurboGears vs. the current 0.9 code in svn.
