[IIAB] [XSCE] Re: iiab on xo-4

[Braddock Gaskill]

Hi Tim,
I think I've seen this setuptools issue before using pip --update on Ubuntu
- not Internet-in-a-box related, but some sort of nasty clash between pip
installed packages and the native packages when I was working on another
project.

As I recall, I found a Stack Overflow response involving downloading the
setuptools or disttools tar file and manually running it to fix it.  I
don't recall more specifics than that, but I remember it was not an elegant
or satisfying solution.
