Comment #1 on issue 885 by pekka.klarck: Error when installing through pip
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=885
I tested this and got the same error. This is most likely due to our
setup.py and robot_postinstall.py having hacks to update pybot/jybot/rebot
scripts dynamically. We have special hacks to support easy_install and
probably need to add something similar for pip. Hopefully we can figure out
something already for 2.6.
What we really should do is creating a new installation and start-up system
(issue 480) but that's way too much work for 2.6 at the moment.
Until this is fixed, a workaround is using easy_install. Notice that in
order to get the latest stable you need to use `easy_install
robotframework==2.5.7`.
