This is probably a setuptools bug.... Upgrade to the latest setuptools.

See: ​t:get_svn_revision

I have seen strangeness with RHEL5 Server as well. My wiki serves up wikiwyg fine to clients, but the firefox on the server doesn't render it properly. I can get more detail if you think it may be related or otherwise a problem.

[Jun Omae]

This is a setuptools problem and maybe known issue. please report to the setuptools maintainer.

About the problem that doesn't render it in firefox, please report with new ticket to ​trac-hacks/newticket.
