Hello again, I am facing an issue when installing setuptools-23.1.0 as part of Python-3.5.2-foss-2016b.eb. It fails with a permission denied despite it has full write permissions on the installation path:

I checked by installing a bare version of the same Python and, although it has setuptools-20.10.1 installed, none of the conflicting files mentioned in the documentation are present: $ find . -name sys.path $ find . -name setuptools* ./lib/python3.5/ensurepip/_bundled/setuptools-20.10.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl ./lib/python3.5/site-packages/pip/utils/setuptools_build.py ./lib/python3.5/site-packages/pip/utils/__pycache__/setuptools_build.cpython-35.pyc ./lib/python3.5/site-packages/setuptools ./lib/python3.5/site-packages/setuptools-20.10.1.dist-info Anybody has encoutered this issue before?
