Description Hongxu Jia 2016-02-24 08:43:49 UTC

The python-setuptools or python3-setuptools do_install misses files:
...
image/
image/usr
image/usr/lib64
image/usr/lib64/python2.7
image/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages
image/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools-19.4-py2.7.egg
image/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools.pth
image/usr/bin
image/usr/bin/easy_install
image/usr/bin/easy_install-2.7
...

It missed python module 'setuptools'

Here is the debian lists:

It is not a bug, just Python Eggs.

we can install it by
