Thought I'd ask here before digging into the code.
I think you're hitting this: https://github.com/hpcugent/vsc-base/issues/129
This looks like it.
Well, it's close...
The fix for vsc-base issue #129 was implemented via
https://github.com/hpcugent/vsc-base/pull/133, but is incomplete, i.e.
the fallback mechanism in case setuptools isn't available is still
broken. This is now fixed in vsc-base v2.0.4, see
https://github.com/hpcugent/vsc-base/pull/159.
Note that this should never have happened in the first place, since the
EasyBuild bootstrap script tries to make sure setuptools *is* available.
This should be fixed soon as a part of
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/1212, but having
vsc-base v2.0.4 available now should fix the bootstrap of v2.0.0 w.r.t.
the _bdist_rpm import issue.
Timothy: please let us know whether this resolves the problem on your end.

Kenneth
