OK, so I downloaded the following from svn:

PEAK-0.5a4-r2287
PyProtocols-1.0a0dev-r2302 (as far as I can tell)
RuleDispatch-0.5a0-r2306 (ditto)

Installing RuleDispatch results in the .egg being placed in site-packages, 
then it processes dependencies and fails as follows:

---  snipped traceback  ---
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c5-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", 
line 1113, in _get
    return self.loader.get_data(path)
zipimport.ZipImportError: bad local file header 
in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/RuleDispatch-0.5a0.dev-py2.4-linux-i686.egg

-----------
PyProtocols seems to have installed correctly.

-----------

Installing PEAK responds as with RuleDispatch- probably not surprising.

running 'peak test --help' results in:

File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c5-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", 
line 483, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)  # XXX put more info here
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: PyProtocols>=1.0a0dev-r2287

Please let me know what to do next.
Thanks
