pkg_resources is part of setuptools. That suggests something is wrong
with the Python path and it's not finding any of the new packages.
Did you install Python to /usr/local or are you using the system
Python? The standard Python in Debian/Ubuntu is specially configured
to look for packages in /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages, but I
don't know if Suse does this.
Do you have multiple copies of Python installed? If so you have to
make sure you're using the same copy for ez_setup.py, easy_install,
python, and paster; e.g., watch out for the shell defaulting to a
different one.
Do you have a custom distutils.cfg or ~/.pydistutils.cfg? It's
possible to configure easy_install to install packages to a directory
where Python can't see them. In that case you either have to change
your install location or make a *.pth file that does "import site;
site.addsitedir('/the/directory/easy_install/is/installing/into')".
