Hi

I am installing setuptools using the --prefix option it complains the
directory does not exist even though it does. The install works however when
I use the --instal-dir option as it recommends.

Thought I would pass this along

macbook-pro-17:~ hari$ sudo sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg
--prefix=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages
error: can't create or remove files in install directory

The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:

    [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/lib/python2.6/site-packages/test-easy-install-79530.pth'

The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:


 
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/lib/python2.6/site-packages

This directory does not currently exist.  Please create it and try again, or
choose a different installation directory (using the -d or --install-dir
option).
