No that's not the problem, I checked the file and it is correct. I
think it's just the way it displays the errors.
I think the problem is the previous error -
can't read /var/mail/distutils.core
I don't understand this at all. There is a line in setup.py
from distutils.core import setup
I assume this is the line that causes the problem
I don't understand the path that is being called, the /var/mail
directory is empty. My $PATH does not contain /var/mail
I tried changing the line to
from /usr/lib/python2.6/distutils.core import setup
but that then gives an error
can't read /var/mail//usr/lib/python2.6/distutils.core
so it is still looking in /var/mail
Any ideas? I am passed the limit of my knowledge in this area so any
help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mick
