It looks like you have very old versions of distribute and six installed in /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages. You probably installed them via pip or easy_install.

I suggest removing /usr/lib64/python2.7/distribute* and /usr/lib64/python2.7/six*.

That should be /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/distribute* and /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/six*.

That solved it! Thanks a lot!
