Pranav,
If you'd looked through you'd know that it has been discussed in some
detail.
And yes, I reproduced something similar a week or so ago when I had
garbage left from an earlier install of Satchmo 0.9pre scattered all
over site-packages.

Due to the switch from subversion to mercurial there seems to be some
confusion between the subversion trunk (Old, deprecated, and probably
won't install data files correctly if retrieved with subversion 1.6.x)
and the mercurial tip.  Between your choice or words and the
documentation's choice of words, I have no idea which you actually
did.  I also have no idea if you had an earlier version installed
before.  I'm guessing that you do.

In theory setup.py should have installed to site-packages/
Satchmo-0.9_pre-py2.?.egg/
Please check this theory.
If you have directories that belong in site-packages/Satchmo-0.9...egg
that are in site-packages from an earlier installation of Satchmo...
they seem to be searched first and lack the files you need.
In theory running 'unzip -v dist/*.egg | grep tax/data' in that
directory you just got by cloning tip from mercurial should result in
something like
     424  Defl:N      205  52% 2009-08-12 19:15 dfcaef56  tax/data/tax-
table.csv
Please check this theory.
In theory mercurial managed data files should be present in the egg
file.

If either theory I requested that you check is confirmed...  You have
cruft from an earilier install.  Remove it.
If either theory is false, especially the unzip one, I'd like to know
a bit more about your environment.
