I can confirm that using [http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute/ Distribute] (Tarek's setuptools fork) to easy_install zope.interface with macports python 2.6.3 succeeds. Unless Tarek's changes make it back to py26-setuptools (which I suspect they won't), it would seem that upgrading to the latest python26 ought to somehow ""swap out"" py26-setuptools for py26-distribute without breaking the many packages which depend on py26-setuptools.",defect,closed,Normal,,ports,1.8.1,fixed,distutils263,ram@… pjkixx@…,py26-setuptools
