Description
The following error occured on a new rst checkout:
-- Installing: /homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/include/rst/Image.pb.h
running install
Checking .pth file support in /homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
error: can't create or remove files in install directory
The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/test-easy-install-26472.pth'
The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:
/homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
This directory does not currently exist. Please create it and try again, or
choose a different installation directory (using the -d or --install-dir
option).
-- Installing: /homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/.
-- Installing: /homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/./rst-0.4.0-py2.6.egg
- My assumption is that /homes/mgoettin/projects_x86_64_carbon/rst/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ is created after the check of the .pth file

It is not created at all. Python requires a basic structure to exist. I don't know if it makes sense to create it with cmake automatically, because you still wont be able to install. setuptools further checks that this folder is in the PYTHONPATH. So you first have to configure your environment before installing in any case.
