Hi,

I got some error messages when using ez_setup to download and use the easy_install.

# setup.py
from ez_setup import use_setuptools
use_setuptools()

from setuptools import setup

setup(name = "blabla",
test_suite = "some_test",
namespace_package = ["some_namespace"],
# many other options
)

So I guess there might be some import problem in my machine (ubuntu lucid) that the pkg_resources.py cannot be loaded from the egg?

Try running this script in your project directory:

from ez_setup import use_setuptools
use_setuptools()

import sys, setuptools, pkg_resources
print sys.path
print pkg_resources.__file__
print setuptools.__file__

This should tell us what's going on with your "import problem" more specifically. ;-)
