Hi Dave,
Is it dying inside setup.py in yt? If so, try disabling that in
setup.py (lines 5&6). It might break, in which case, we can probably
get rid of the distribute/setuptools specific options. I think this
would be the entry_points option (lines 122-124) and possibly line
130. These options provides the 'yt' command, which maybe we can mock
up using a script rather than an entry point, and then get rid of
setuptools altogether. You will also not be able to use the "develop"
command if you do not use setuptools/distribute, in which case you'll
be stuck installing and having to reinstall if you make changes.
I strongly encourage you to file as a bug with the distribute folks
that you can't install a distribute-bootstrapped package without a
network connection.

Hi there--
I'm on a system that has a pretty fierce firewall so that things like pip, wget, and mercurial can't see the outside world through any http based protocol. I got the zips from a different machine and things worked basically fine until I got to the bit where it tries to install easy_install. (error below)
Has anyone had experience with such a problem, and have suggestions for getting around the need for a network connection?
Thanks, d.
