I've upgraded to 0.6a1 on one machine, and am now getting the following error for a fresh checkout of my project [1]: ... raise ValueError( ValueError: ("Missing 'Version:' header and/or PKG-INFO file", bitten [unknown version] (/usr/local/src/bitten/trunk))
Is there a /usr/local/src/bitten/trunk/bitten.egg-info/PKG-INFO file, with a 'Version:' header in it? If not, then the error message is correct, and you should go to /usr/local/src/bitten/trunk and run "setup.py egg_info" to rebuild the project's egg-info.
Previously I've been using 0.5a13. The project includes ez_setup as svn:external. Is this a problem in (or incompatibility with) ez_setup?
No; it just looks like a straightforward error to me. Older versions of pkg_resources (like the 0.5 versions) sometimes masked this error, though, as it used to be an AttributeError instead of a ValueError, and it could thus get suppressed in certain situations.
