[visionegg] Re: Newbie installation problems

Hi Tom.

Apparently there is a missing requirement on the website. "setuptools"
is a Python package to help installation. To get it, go to
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools

They have instructions about how to install it, but it looks like this
should work (I don't have my Mac to test this right now):

sudo sh setuptools-0.6c9-py2.4.egg

Then continue on with the VE install.
