Public bug reported:
If zc.buildout is already installed (say it was pip installed) in Python
environment, the bootstrap.py script fails without reasonable
explanation:
$ python bootstrap.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bootstrap.py", line 255, in <module>
import zc.buildout.buildout
ImportError: No module named zc.buildout.buildout
This is confusing because you can see that zc.buildout.buildout is
available.
$ python
Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Jun 25 2011, 08:36:25)
[GCC 4.4.4 20100726 (Red Hat 4.4.4-13)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import zc.buildout.buildout
>>>
It turns out that if zc.buildout is already available, bootstrap.py does
not need to be run, but that is less than obvious to someone who is not
intimately familiar with buildout.
