Re: [Fab-user] fabric on os x

[Jeff Forcier]

Hi all,

I dug into this today and spoke to a friend who is deeply embedded in
the packaging world. The tl;dr is that as already noted, using some
newer copy of setuptools (eg via a virtualenv, or upgrading
setuptools) will work around this problem. I've added an FAQ to our
website:

    http://www.fabfile.org/faq.html#fabric-installs-but-doesn-t-run

Best,
Jeff
