Sure, if the egg has been extracted, you can 'cd' into the egg
directory and run 'chicken-setup' again.

E.g.

# chicken-setup -k miscmacros

The extension miscmacros does not exist.
Do you want to download it ? (yes/no/abort) [yes] yes
downloading miscmacros.egg from
(www.call-with-current-continuation.org eggs/3 80)
  gzip -d -c ../miscmacros.egg | tar xf -
  cp -r miscmacros.scm
/home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3/miscmacros.scm
  chmod a+r /home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3/miscmacros.scm
  cp -r miscmacros.html
/home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3/miscmacros.html
  chmod a+r /home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3/miscmacros.html

/home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3:
  cp -r miscmacros.html

  chmod a+r /home/graham/tmp/chicken/build//lib/chicken/3/miscmacros.setup-info

# cd miscmacros.egg-dir/

# chicken-setup
