I got this error when running tgsetup.py:

self.find_links.append(TGDOWNLOAD)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'append'
I fixed it by changing tgsetup.py to check if self.find_links is a
string, and if so, encase it in a list:
if self.find_links is None:
self.find_links = []
# this elif fixes the AttributeError: 'str' object has no
attribute 'append' error
elif isinstance(self.find_links, (str, unicode)):
# encase string in list
self.find_links = [self.find_links]
self.find_links.append(TGDOWNLOAD)
I wonder if I encountered this because I have a ~/.pydistutils.cfg
file with a find_links value in the [easy_install] section, so
find_links is initialized as a string instead of None (which is
already handled).
Is this a satisfactory fix? If so, I will file a ticket on it.
