Hello. I'm trying to install Trac, and it failed with a NameError: global name 'log' is not defined error message. Because of that, I found the "the svn >= 1.5 bug with setuptools/command/sdist.py: global name 'log' is not defined" thread from August 2008 at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2008-August/009883.html
Now I'm trying to solve that problem. I tried: easy_install -U setuptools==dev This fails: --($ ~/Source/Distutils-1.0.2)-- easy_install -U setuptools==dev Searching for setuptools==dev Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/setuptools/ Best match: setuptools dev Downloading http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/trunk/setuptools/#egg=setuptools-dev Doing subversion checkout from http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/trunk/setuptools/ to /tmp/easy_install-rVsHxt/setuptools Processing setuptools Running setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /tmp/easy_install-rVsHxt/setuptools/egg-dist-tmp-F3KSrb unrecognized .svn/entries format; skipping .

This is a Sun Solaris 10 Sparc system, if it matters. What can be done to solve this problem?
