Well, I found out that if before compiling my python I set export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 and then do all the rest, then I get easy_install to work. Besides, I had the same error trying to install cx_Oracle. So, somehow my python (or setuptools) need to build for "10.3". For me it's a bug in setuptools since the function that do this check and raise the error are from setuptools package.

This is really a build question, rather than a distributuion question -- I"d try the pythonmac list:

I recall that readline is a bit of a pain on the Mac, but don't recall the solution (nor am I running 10.8 yet).
Good luck, -Chris

Hi there,
I am trying to install readline and cx_Oracle on my Mac OSX 10.8.4. I've just installed python 2.7.3 standard in my $HOME dir and then I did:
export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH ~/setuptools-0.7.7 python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME
which worked.
I tried to installed ipython 0.13.2 which seems to have worked but it fails to start because of readline.
