The version based on Python 2.6.1 uses different locations, namely
App\easy_install.py (and also App\setuptools\command\easy_install.py).

Something doesn't seem quite right though - easy_install can't find
setuptools*.
Yet I can import it manually from the same working directory:
    cd App
    python.exe
    >>> import setuptools # works

Am I perhaps Doing It Completely Wrong?

* command and traceback:
    > App\python.exe App\easy_install.py foo
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "App\easy_install.py", line 4, in <module>
        from setuptools.command.easy_install import main
      File "App\setuptools\command\easy_install.py", line 21, in
<module>
        from setuptools.package_index import PackageIndex,

      File "App\pkg_resources.py", line 524, in res
    olve
        raise DistributionNotFound(req)  # XXX put more info here
    pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: setuptools

How to fix it:
- delete setuptools dir from [PProot]\App
- delete easy_install.py from [PProot]\App
- delete pkg_resources.py from [PProot]\App
- delete site.py from [PProot]\App
- download ez_setup.py from http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py
and place it in your [PProot]\App
- open command prompt and change dir to [PProot]\App
- type "python ez_setup.py"
- setup tools should be installed
- to use it type "Scripts\easy_install.exe [package_name]" while you
are in [PProot]\App

let me know if you have more problems. I will record this as a bug on
PP project site (http://www.PortablePython.com)

keep pythoning !
