How to get virtualenv to work after upgrading to Lion?

问题

I just upgraded from SnowLeapord to Lion and now cannot create virtualenvs. I understand that there are new Python installations after the upgrade and no site packages and have tried installing pip and virtualenv again as well as upgrading to Xcode4 but I always get this error:

~ > virtualenv --distribute env
New python executable in env/bin/python

I am a bit of a unix/python novice and just cannot work out how to get this working. Any ideas? Without using the --distribute tag I get this error:

Turns out that although I upgraded Xcode to version 4, it does not automatically install the command line tools. I followed this http://blog.cingusoft.org/mac-osx-lion-virtualenv-and-could-not-call-in.

Basically, install Xcode, go into Preferences and then Downloads and install "Command Line Tools". It works now.

The Command Line Tools are also available directly from https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action#

I also had to upgrade my setuptools.

pip install setuptools --upgrade

回答3:

cd /usr/lib/python2.7
sudo ln -s plat-x86_64-linux-gnu/_sysconfigdata_nd.py .
