When you read the documentation setuptools, you'll see that there is a
bootstrap module available for first time setuptools install
http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools
This tool, ez_setup.py, also provides some of easy_install's functionality.
There is an egg for Python 2.6 for setuptools 0.6c9 on PyPI, I don't
know why tgsetup.py wants to download version 0.6c8. I'll check and
update tgsetup.py if necessary.
BTW, when you have managed to install setuptools, you will find out that
you can also install egg files with it, which you have downloaded locally:
easy_install some-package.egg
Hey, it even works with most source distributions, if they contain a
standard "setup.py" file:
easy_install some-source-package.tar.gz
Find out more here:

But as you already noticed, TurboGears 1.0.7 is not ready for Python 2.6
yet, because some of its requirements do not work with it.
