[Denyhosts-user] Macports setup.py install fails on OS X 10.6

[Olaf Klinke]

Dear denyhosts users,

This is most likely not a bug in denyhosts itself, but I am not  
familiar with python so I need help to find out what's going wrong.
I had denyhosts running fine on OS X 10.5 and upgraded to 10.6  
recently. Therefore I uninstalled all my Macports packages and rebuilt  
them, as recommended on the Macports page 
http://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration
One crucial difference is that python 2.5 is no longer required, which  
was installed alongside python 2.6 before the upgrade. Something must  
have gone wrong there, since /opt/local/bin/python was still pointing  
to /opt/local/bin/python2.5 which no longer exists, so I changed the  
symlink to /opt/local/bin/python2.6 which itself points to /opt/local/ 
Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python2.6
This is the binary which is referenced in the files in /opt/local/ 
share/denyhosts.

Now I installed the Macports denyhosts package denyho...@2.6_1 and ran

$ cd /opt/local/share/denyhosts
$ sudo python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_py
error: package directory 'DenyHosts' does not exist

Anyone know to which 'DenyHosts' directory this error message refers?
What can I do to determine the cause for this?
Should I contact the package maintainer instead?

Thanks
Olf

Below is the setup.py as it comes with the denyhosts port.
