I was able to run easy_install to get the Jenkins api and it placed python_jenkins-0.2.1-py3.2.egg at C:\Python32\Lib\site-packages. I just found out that the file is some sort of a zip file. I changed the extension to .zip and unzipped it. I found very little in there though. There was just an _init_.py file in 1 folder and dependency_links.txt, PKG-INFO, SOURCES.txt, top_level.txt and zip-safe file in another folder. I'm no programming genius, but it doesn't look like this isn enough to be the api. I have tried running scripts with import jenkinsapi at the top and the script fails. But, if I comment it out, the rest of the script will run, which tells me that the api isn't installed right or isn't working.
