Hi

Been trying to install quick2wire-python-api using the guide in the README.md file, however when I run the command:

python3 setup.py install

I get the error:

 Traceback (most recent call last):                                                                                                                              
  File "setup.py", line 3, in <module>                                                                                                                          
    from setuptools import setup                                                                                                                                
ImportError: No module named setuptools

what am I missing?

    It looks as if you are not installing into a virtualenv. When the virtualenv tool creates an environment it installs the distribute package into it, which provides the setuptools module.

    If you are not using a virtualenv, we recommend setting the PYTHONPATH as described in the README.md. You can add the command to set the PYTHONPATH to the file $HOME/.bashrc so that it is done every time you open a terminal window.

    So to answer the original question (if you've not already fixed the problem yourself).... if you're not using a virtualenv, you need to install the distribute module - install instructions can be found at the bottom of http://pythonhosted.org/distribute/
