[Distutils] Buildout not updating setuptools

[Graham Stratton]

Hi, I'm having a problem with buildout.

My system has setuptools 0.6c5 installed. The buildout bootstrap.py script
doesn't install the latest version, and nor does running bin/buildout. The
result is that the Routes install fails with
The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c6) is not available, ...

The problem seems to be that bootstrap.py creates a link for setuptools in
develop-eggs. Why would that be?

Thanks,

Graham
