This is my fault. I was thinking, no harm in adding setup.cfg and it would show version info on the WebAdmin panel, which is a good thing. It works fine from the command line on Linux. I'll need to do some investigation to figure out more about the issue you are having.

[Ryan J Ollos]

Any chance it works if we deleted tag_build = , but keep tag_svn_revision = true in setup.cfg?

[Ryan J Ollos]

Mailing list post that reports the same issue with a different plugin: ​http://groups.google.com/group/trac-users/browse_frm/thread/9cc93287de1d666a.

The common theme here that I see so far is easy_install on Windows.

[Ryan J Ollos]

Did you checkout from svn or download the zip archive?

sorry, i don't recall how the source was obtained

Okay, thanks for getting back to me. Its easy enough to test, so I'll do that when I have some free time to get setup with Python on windows.

[Ryan J Ollos]

Issue seems to be setuptools not supporting SVN 1.7. See comment 6 in #9709 by netjunki.

[Ryan J Ollos]

This issue is seen again in #10778.
