Thanks, I already did this 1h ago. Now the question is why there was the need for a fork and why there is no information on setuptools page regarding this. Is there any reason for having two packages setuptools/distribute? Thanks again.

Distribute is a fork of setuptools that includes Python 3 support. See http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute
You can simply switch to using Distribute instead. It also includes support for supporting Python 2 and Python 3 for the same project: http://packages.python.org/distribute/python3.html

Is there any plan regarding Python 3. setuptools should be one of the first packages being ported to py3k. Not doing this will prevent others from doing the switch.
