Public bug reported:

Most/all of the ubuntu python packages have an egg-info file or
directory (for instance /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/psycopg2-2.4.5
.egg-info). Mapnik doesn't have one, so setuptools doesn't know that the
package is present.

Importing works just fine, no problems there. But setuptools'
pkg_resources.require() fails. If I add a "mapnik.egg-info" with just
"Name: mapnik"in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/, it works fine.

To reproduce, install "python-mapnik" fire up the python prompt.

import pkg_resources

pkg_resources.require('psycopg2')

pkg_resources.require('requests')

pkg_resources.require('mapnik')
