Hi,

Yah well just leave it. I'll try to get to it.

I'll stash a recent setuptools into all pythons.

Further evidence for this suggestion: winbot's c:/python26_32/python.exe has

   >>> import setuptools
   >>> setuptools.__file__
   '....\\setuptools-0.7.1-...'

and works fine, while winbot's c:/python26_64/python.exe has

   >>> import setuptools
   >>> setuptools.__file__
   '....\\distribute-0.6.44-...'

and doesn't.

I'm somewhat ashamed to admit that I don't know how to do that.

Normally I get setuptools with sudo apt-get install python-setuptools,
or by creating a virtualenv.

IIRC there's some sort of ez_setup.py that you can run?  Never mind, I
can read the fine manual: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/0.9.5#windows

So, here's what I did:

 - rdesktop'ed into winbot
 - Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs
 - removed Python 2.6 setuptools 0.6c11 (it said it was already removed,
   so I just OK'ed removing the add/remove programs item)
 - removed Python 2.7 setuptools 0.6c11 (this time it said it removed 18
   files and directories)
 - left setuptools 0.6c11 installers for Python 2.4 and 2.5 alone
   because meh
 - launched Git bash
 - cd /c/Python26_64/Lib/site-packages
 - rm -rf setuptools* distribute*
 - cd /tmp
 - curl https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/downloads/ez_setup.py > ez_setup.py
 - /c/Python26_64/python ez_setup.py
 - cd /c/Python27_64/Lib/site-packages
 - rm -rf setuptools* distribute*
 - cd /tmp
 - /c/Python27_64/python ez_setup.py

And now I'm wondering if those control panel installers were about
32-bit or 64-bit installs, and I wonder if I broke Python27_32 by
removing all traces of setuptools form there.  Let's check:

   $ /c/Python27_32/python
   >>> import setuptools
   >>> setuptools.__file__
   '....\\distribute-0.6.44-...'

Huh?  And no builds failed on py_270_win32?  I don't understand, and I
don't _want_ to understand.  Let's just see what buildbots report
tomorrow.
