[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app: Bombing on unknown load command 27

[Joel Gluck]

Hi Chris,

Thanks for this suggestion.

Question: when I ran easy_install for py2app as you suggested, it  
returned an error:

The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c9) is not available, and
can't be installed while this script is running. Please install
  a more recent version first, using 'easy_install -U setuptools'.

When I tried to install setuptools as it recommended, it seemed to work,
but then running easy_install for py2app again bombed in the same way.
(Whole session below.)

Any idea what's going on?

TIA,
Joel
