Description

I am using GDAL on a cluster (which runs Scientific Linux, a RHEL 5.5 clone) and came across this installation problem:

Markus,

I've just grabbed SL 5.5 x86_64 LiveDVD, installed it on a VM harddisk, checkout 1.7 branch and built successfully the python bindings. So I'd suspect something wrong/unusual in your install ?

Resolution: invalid
Status: newclosed

Rouault,

thanks for trying. I have a standard installation here.

Fixed this way: I have updated /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools/command/sdist.py to a newer version from Python 2.6 and it works now. For the record, patch to setuptools attached.

Closing as invalid since GDAL isn't involved.
