comfort in the PyPi documentation or in Google searches. I uploaded my
package `pykrylov` with `python setup.py sdist upload`. Installing it
locally with `python setup.py` install works fine but `pip install
pykrylov` breaks with the messages below. I since removed it from PyPI but
I get the same error message if I try installing from the git repository.
I'm hoping someone can put me on track as I've no idea what's wrong. You
can see my setup.py here:

Attempts to upgrade setuptools or pip result in another error message
(AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'rollback')...

distutils) by installing from their git repository, and I'm still getting

I don't know but I'm not totally clear what you mean. Previously you
described multiple problems: with pip, setuptools and pykrylov. Have you
successfully installed setuptools now?

If the "same error" is with pykrylov's setup.py have you tried debugging
it? E.g. 'python -m pdb setup.py install'
