installing setuptools on Windows custom python install

E

Eric Frederich

Hello,

I have a python installation that I built myself using Visual Studio 2005.
I need this version because I need to link Python bindings to a 3rd
party library that uses VS 2005.

I want to get setuptools installed to this Python installation but the
installer won't find my version of Python even if it is on the PATH
and PYTHONHOME is set.
So, I am trying to build setuptools but when I run "python setup.py
install" I get the following error.
Any ideas either on how to get the installer to find my installation
or on how to get this to compile?

F:\pyside\setuptools-0.6c11>python setup.py install
running install
