I'm not finding much comfort in the PyPi documentation or in Google searches. I uploaded my package `pykrylov` with `python setup.py sdist upload`. Installing it locally with `python setup.py` install works fine but `pip install pykrylov` breaks with the messages below. I since removed it from PyPI but I get the same error message if I try installing from the git repository. I'm hoping someone can put me on track as I've no idea what's wrong.

I'm still getting the same error with setuptools 1.1.6.

I don't know but I'm not totally clear what you mean. Previously you described multiple problems: with pip, setuptools and pykrylov. Have you successfully installed setuptools now? If the "same error" is with pykrylov's setup.py have you tried debugging it? E.g. 'python -m pdb setup.py install' Oscar
