Hello<div><br></div><div>I have a rather serious problem with distribute 0.6.14, in that it won&#39;t install for me under Python 2.7 on Linux (RHEL 4u6). What happens is this:</div><div><br></div><div><div>-bash-3.00$ python distribute_setup.py</div>
<div>Extracting in /tmp/tmphDMO8m</div><div>Traceback (most recent call last):</div><div>  File &quot;distribute_setup.py&quot;, line 485, in &lt;module&gt;</div><div>    main(sys.argv[1:])</div><div>  File &quot;distribute_setup.py&quot;, line 481, in main</div>
