Hi,

I don't know what happened recently. Usually I install setuptools by a script using the ez_setup.py script.

Recently I get an error:

Downloading https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-21.0.0.zip

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "downloads/ez_setup.py", line 415, in <module>

    sys.exit(main())

    raise HTTPError(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp)

urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

For now I can copy the package from an old virtualenv, but I'd appreciate a better solution/advise.

Thanks
