I am using version "0.6c9-s1" of setuptools and Python 2.6.4.

I am trying to use the --uninstall option of "setup.py develop", but even with a simple example, I get the following error:

-----
none:devtest warren$ python setup.py develop --uninstall
running develop
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 8, in <module>
  author="WW",
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/6.1/lib/python2.6/distutils/core.py", line 152, in setup
  dist.run_commands()
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/6.1/lib/python2.6/distutils/dist.py", line 975, in run_commands
  self.run_command(cmd)

  self._run_egg_info_script(self.distribution.location,
AttributeError: Distribution instance has no attribute 'location'
none:devtest warren$

My files look like this:

devtest/
  setup.py
  qwerty/
      __init__.py
      qwerty.py

Running "setup.py develop" works fine.

Here's setup.py:

-----
from setuptools import setup, find_packages

setup(
  name="qwerty",
  packages=find_packages(),
  version="0.1.0",
  author="WW",
)

Is this a known problem, maybe fixed in a later version?


Regards,

Warren
