Well, I figured out enough to get myself going and it seems worth posting this for sake of closing the loop. I had just installed python 2.7 and it seems that setuptools needs to be added to that package - it's not automatically in there. I was getting this error when I ran ./run Building dateutil... Traceback (most recent call last): File "./setup.py", line 7, in <module> from setuptools import setup ImportError: No module named setuptools Installing setuptools for 2.7 fixed the problem. Seems self-evident, but I don't play with python on a regular basis and had no living idea! cheers all - Conrad
