easy install failure

[Mango Cat]

I have a trac 1.0 site setup on Ubuntu 12.10 server - WSGI on Apache2 with git, nothing terribly exotic I think...

When I try to use the 0.11 easy install, this happens:

On the bright side, it seems to clean up after itself (nothing left in /tmp) and doesn't break the existing trac, so that's a good thing.

That's an setuptools issue with subversion 1.7+. See comment:4:ticket:10778 for some solutions (comment copied from comment:1:ticket:11334).
