Ignacio packaged up TurboGears for extras[0] earlier this year, which
installs it using --single-version-externally-managed.

As for python-TestGears, I recently filed a bug[1] to add this as a
dependency because the tg-admin tool explodes without it:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/tg-admin", line 5, in ?
        from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
      File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2356, in ?
        working_set.require(__requires__)
      File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 585, in require
        needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
      File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 483, in resolve
        raise DistributionNotFound(req)  # XXX put more info here
    pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: TestGears>=0.2
