Trying to get this setup in preparation for impending Avalon arrival.
Machine is running 64 bit version of Ubuntu 12.10.

The required version of distribute (>=0.6.28) is not available,
and can't be installed while this script is running. Please
install a more recent version first, using
'easy_install -U distribute'.
(Currently using distribute 0.6.24dev-r0 (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages))
error: Setup script exited with 2
It looks like Stratum is demanding a version of distribute of >=0.6.28 and doesn't recognize distribute 0.6.36.
