If you want to install from git (or a tar.gz), you'll need to install a handful of other dependencies (django-pipeline, uglifyjs, lesscss). None of this is needed if you easy_install the .egg.

I know, and I have all the dependencies

The 'collectstatic' management command actually seems to be part of the django package. What version of django do you have installed?
#4 makowsk********@gmai***** (Google Code) (Is this you? Claim this profile.) 
yes it is, and I have it. The build is made with Django 1.7, but I saw that Arch have or had the same issue, or can it be an issue with missing lesscss ?
Strange because Fedora don't add this dependency in their package (http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/python-djblets.git/tree/python-djblets.spec)

It shouldn't be a missing lesscss. Some distributions package django in strange ways. Perhaps the django-staticfiles stuff is in a separate package?
#6 makowsk********@gmai***** (Google Code) (Is this you? Claim this profile.) 
django-staticfiles stuff is there,
see : http://sophie.zarb.org/rpms/8ee9970f532cead9b5dc1165eb360ce1/files

Well, something is wrong with the configuration or installation of the system. I'm not really sure I can help debug this any further.

Is there a reason why you can't just install the egg?
#8 makowsk********@gmai***** (Google Code) (Is this you? Claim this profile.) 
Yes, there is. djblets is packaged in Mageia, and I want to update the package for next comming Mageia version.
Did you tried to build it with Django 1.7 yet ?

#9 david 
Ah, I hadn't even noticed that you said django 1.7. We have not tested it with django 1.7, and I can't claim whether there's anything in 1.7 that would break it. Probably the reason why it can't find collectstatic is the setup.py dependency on "Django>=1.6.7,<1.7"
#10 makowsk********@gmai***** (Google Code) (Is this you? Claim this profile.) 
I patched the dependency to be "Django>=1.6,<1.8"

We are not known to be compatible with Django 1.7. It is likely you will hit some significant problems. Please downgrade to 1.6.
#12 makowsk********@gmai***** (Google Code) (Is this you? Claim this profile.) 
too bad, so Mageia will stay with python-djblets 0.7.30 and Django14
since we have Django14 (LTS) and Django1è (latest stable)
