Problem with setuptools_bootstrap module on install

[jhmatthews]

On trying to do the pip install, I get the following error message:

ImportError: No module named setuptools_bootstrap

I installed astropy as recommended

pip install astropy --user

where I was also told to upgrade my setuptools with

easyinstall -U setuptools

But the pip install still gave the above error. I was able to install tardis fine if I commented out the line in setup.py that imported the setuptools_bootstrap module and built myself, which is a little confusing.

This may be a problem with some other installation (e.g. astropy) or a fault on my part, but I thought I'd flag it anyway as other users may come across it if they have a simialr python set up.

Versions:
Python: 2.7.3
Numpy: numpy-1.8.0
OS X 10.8.2

I see that in the repository there is a file setuptools_bootstrap.py -- this does not exist in folder downloaded in the pip install.

A clone of the git repository, and my own build of Cython suppressed the above error.
