When upgrading dev-python/setuptools-0.6_rc9-r1 to version 0.6-r1 the installation fails with this error: ImportError: No module named core.utils.dist I'm using Python 2.6.

Created attachment 201404 [details] build.log
Please try with dev-python/setuptools-0.6.1.
the bug is still present in 0.6.1. I'll attach the build log and the environment file. The emerge --info is already present in the first comment The error is this: ImportError: No module named core.utils.dist so it could maybe related to a missing python module that I have removed even if I don't remember to have ever removed any python modules. Maybe it could be related to Python 2.6, since the die message is "Installation failed with Python 2.6 in installation() function"

(In reply to comment #3) > Maybe it could be related to Python 2.6, since the die message is > "Installation failed with Python 2.6 in installation() function" It's only a standard message which informs which Python version was currently used.
Please try: emerge -C setuptools emerge -1 setuptools
It still fails with the same error. Shall I attach the build.log of this build?
Please try with dev-python/setuptools-0.6.2.
setuptools-0.6.2 installs without any problem. I think the bug is resolved
Thanks for testing.
