Andrew Farrell <afarr...@mit.edu> added the comment: The attempt to install setuptools indicates that zlib may actually be required it seems. I download setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools and, as instructed at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools#id4 and run `sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg` however get the following exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available dlafarrell:/localhome/afarrell$ sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available
Given that this is an import error, I infer that this may just be a problem with the egg; no import may be needed. If thats the case then the egg should change to reflect that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6026> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
