How can I install a PyPi equivalent from scratch?

Question

I need to build an internal python package index server, starting from scratch. In house right now we use Python 2.6 and 2.7, and prefer installing packages using pip.

We don't require authentication, but it would help.

What's the easiest way to get a PyPi equivalent running internally?

I am aware of the existence of mypypi, djangopypi, Plone Software Center, and EggBasket, but I have not been able to find a simple clear set of steps to set one of these up in a modern environment; the most recent complete docs I found for any of them seemed to be Tarek Ziade's 2008 blog article on them but it's not clear how up to date that is (and that seems to pull in a huge dependency tree, to boot).

tldr; what's the best PyPi implementation, and how do I install it + configure it?

note: if you just need to install packages with pip --extra-index-url then a simple directory listing that can be served by any webserver is enough e.g., pinax uses dist.pinaxproject.com/dev — jfs

Best is a relative term but I myself created ClueReleaseManager to deal with this need locally - http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ClueReleaseManager
