Hi Mahendra,
this seems to be caused by the "mocker" library being distributed as a bzip2 archive. A while ago another developer ran into the same problem and solved it by installing bzip2 separately and then switching to python 2.6 (IIRC). Obviously being stuck with py2.6 is a less then ideal solution, but if you can wait a little: I am currently doing some work on mailman.client to prepare for the Pycon development sprints starting on monday. Part of that work is replacing the "mocker" library with another one called "mock", which is distributed as a less exotic gzipped tarball. This is no solution for your general problem installing bzipped python packages, but at least it will most probably solve this particular issue...
I'll post a message here when I'm done...
Cheers Florian

This is my first time I am setting up mailman.Using step-by-step procedure from http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/A+5+minute+guide+to+get+the+Mailman+web+UI+...
when i am doing :- $ cd mailman.client $ python setup.py develop
I am gettin following error :- ... Processing mocker-1.1.1.tar.bz2 error: Not a recognized archive type: /tmp/easy_install-kM8hYI/mocker-1.1.1.tar.bz2
Any clue how to solve this ? I asked the same on irc but i feel its quite inactive might be due to the time-zone difference with other developers.
One more thing that I noticed during the same step is when it downloads mocker and other requirements using script
python2.7/site-packages/distribute-0.6.10-py2.7.egg/setuptools/package_index.py It takes proxy not into account when opening url in open_with_auth(url).So, I think we shall modify it to take proxy option also.
Please guide me if I have skipped any point or taken a wrong step.
Regards Mahendra
