Andi, TL;DR: success! installing setuptools 1.1.6 allowed the PyLucene 4.5
install to succeed.
I have several Python versions on my laptop, each of which seems to have at
least one setuptools installed with it. The one for Python 2.7.2 is here:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/setuptools/
and __init__.py in the above directory has this line:
__version__ = '0.6c12'
Is there some other way to determine the setuptools version?
I installed setuptools v1.1.6 using the instructions here:
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/1.1.6#upgrading-from-setuptools-0-6>,
(I see that the above-mentioned __init__.py still has the same __version__ -
not sure what that means…)
Anyway, this (apparently) allowed the installation process to succeed!
Here's the output I get at the end after I re-unpacked the pylucene
distribution and ran 'make && sudo make install':
