[New-bugs-announce] [issue10106] missing packages

[S S]

New submission from S S <senya72 at gmail.com>:

when trying to install beutifulsoup package on windows xp x86 with python 2.6.6 getting the following error

C:\Python26>python C:\temp\BeautifulSoup-3.0.8.1\setup.py install
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\temp\BeautifulSoup-3.0.8.1\setup.py", line 1, in <module>
    from distutils.core import setup
ImportError: No module named distutils.core


installing the same package with python 2.7 gives a different error about site module missing. 

these errors i am getting with any packages  installs actually.
