print sys.path shows the egg is the first item. ['setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg', '', '/usr/lib/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages', ....]
print pkg_resources.__file__ shows /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pkg_resources.pyc print setuptools.__file__ shows setuptools-0.6c9-py2.6.egg/setuptools/__init__.py Hmm, then it's strange.. Kenton (cc-ed) also got the same problem when running this on Ubuntu + python 2.6. The pkg_resources is from /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/, while the egg should have a higher import priority than /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages in sys.path...
