For some reason I can not bootstrap setuptools 0.6c8 into a python.
This is Python 2.5 running under AIX 5.2, and the site-packages
directory is completely empty. I've tried to use just ez_setup.py
with no options, as well as downloading the egg file locally into
a temporary directory and using:
python ez_setup.py -v -H "" setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg
I get this strange traceback every time:
Downloading
http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.5/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ez_setup.py", line 267, in <module>
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "ez_setup.py", line 200, in main
from setuptools.command.easy_install import main
File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/setuptools/__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/setuptools/extension.py", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named core
Furthermore, the local egg file setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg is
removed from my working directory! My working directory is
completely outside of the python path or site-packages dir.
I also tried using the -d option to explicitly point to the site-packages
dir, but the results are the same.
I can not figure out what exactly is wrong. Any ideas?
