Yes, it should. You are not the first person to report this, but
everytime I try to reproduce it, I can't, and get numscons correctly
installed. That's really weird. As a temporary workaround, you may
install from sources.

Which version of setuptools are you using ? Can you confirm that the
numscons/scons-local directory is empty (it should contain a scons
installation).

cheers,
