[Distutils] cli.exe missing from py2.3 egg?

[Richard Cooper]

I've just tried installing setuptools 0.6a6 so that I could install nose
(http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/) via easy_install
but I've hit a problem.

It looks like cli.exe and gui.exe are not getting installed. To check I
manually downloaded both setuptools-0.6a6-py2.4.egg and
setuptools-0.6a6-py2.3.egg from the cheeseshop and opened them with a
Zip viewer. Sure enough the py2.4 egg contains both exes but the py2.3
one doesn't. Should the py2.3 egg include these files?

Thanks,

Richard

PS: Here is a transcript of my installation attempt.
