Does version 1.2r1 have an installation bug for non-package installs?

Asked by jinhale@gmail.com

I have made a typescript file while I tried to install the latest version of Mnemosyne. I believe I have installed all the required dependencies. When I follow the README instructions I get an error. After typing 'python setup.py install' w/o the single quotes I get the following error, also included at the end of my typescript file:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "setup.py", line 4, in ?

    from setuptools import setup

ImportError: No module named setuptools

I see this package is provided by the easy_install package. Never mind. I didn't realize that was required.
