Unable to compile

[patrick.little@…]

My organization uses VisualSVN and it's Trac plugin to host our environment. Therefore I have to compile plugins as eggs and then install them through the web admin interface. (I do not get command access to the server.)

To match the server environment, I installed the same server programs on my machine so that I can build compatible eggs. This has worked with several other plugins, but I'm unable to get a compile to proceed.

VisualSVN includes Trac 0.12.3 and python 2.6.6

After downloading the trunk source, the command "python setup.py bdist_egg" results in:

running bdist_egg

I've seen this issue before. You are using SVN 1.7.x?
