The one package that stuck in my mind was Cython, and for some reason the error log for that one is not yet overwritten. Here's that error message:
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/Masson/Downloads/GitHub/sage/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/backports_abc-0.4-py2.7.egg' Error installing Cython Error messages for other packages were similar, reporting a missing .egg with a name different from the package. To the best of my memory, some of the other troublesome packages were appnope, snowballstemmer and wcwidth. I'm pretty sure that appnope reported a missing pytz .egg.
