OS is DeadRat: [eb@node0001 modules]$ cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago) [eb@node0001 modules]$ Python is 2.6.6: [eb@node0001 modules]$ python -V Python 2.6.6 The output of `python -c "import sys; print sys.path"` is: [eb@node0001 ~]$ python -c "import sys; print sys.path" ['', '/curc/tools/x86_64/rh6/software/EasyBuild/1.16.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_easyconfigs-1.16.1.0-py2.6.egg', '/curc/tools/x86_64/rh6/software/EasyBuild/1.16.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_easyblocks-1.16.1-py2.6.egg', '/curc/tools/x86_64/rh6/software/EasyBuild/1.16.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_framework-1.16.1-py2.6.egg', '/curc/tools/x86_64/rh6/software/EasyBuild/1.16.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/python26.zip', '/usr/lib64/python2.6', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages'] Please note, I have EasyBuild 1.16.1 loaded. (Showing my ignorance, I can't seem to find setuptools). However distutils/command/bdist.py contains: __revision__ = "$Id: bdist.py 62197 2008-04-07 01:53:39Z mark.hammond $" I'll try import as statement and let you know how I go. Thanks! Timothy
