Install Problem on Ubuntu 11.10

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Setup:
On a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10, with apt-get cython and pygame installed. 
Python is 2.7.2
Cython is 0.14.1-6

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
On build command ('python setup.py build_ext -i' from poly2tri directory), 
expect a flawless install, instead get the error: 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 38, in <module>
    install_requires = ["cython==0.14.1"],
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/core.py", line 112, in setup
    _setup_distribution = dist = klass(attrs)

    class build_cython(Cython.Distutils.build_ext, object):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Distutils'

What version of the product are you using?
Problem is the same with the poly2tri and latest code. 


Please provide any additional information below.
Any ideas? Looks like dependency issue.

Will look into this *relatively soon*, but it probably has to do with an 
updated version of Cython. You could probably easily fix this yourself if you 
commit a few minutes to working out the dependencies.

I'm doubting this is a dependency issue now. It looks more like an issue on how 
Cython is called somewhere. I was just testing in a python terminal and noticed 
the following:

>>> import Cython
>>> Cython.Distutils.build_ext
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Distutils'
>>> 
>>> 
>>> import Cython.Distutils
>>> Cython.Distutils.build_ext
<class Cython.Distutils.build_ext.build_ext at 0x7f2219418e20>

I just can't find the offending code that causes this. Any thoughts?

So, this problem goes away (but gcc problems) when the following lines are 
commented out: 

in poly2tri.python/setuptools_cython-0.2.1-py2.7.egg/setuptools_cython.py

if 'Cython' in sys.modules:
    del sys.modules['Cython']

With the lines enabled, I get the same error: AttributeError: 'module' object 
has no attribute 'Distutils'

But the install crashes at GCC. Have you had any time to look at this?

Fixed. The gcc issue was covered in issue 47. fix is to comment out "if 
'Cython' in sys.modules:
    del sys.modules['Cython']"

Anyone is welcome to submit a patch. C++ and Java are now the officially
