Title Body

I've been using virtualenv + pip for python development. I'm not sure what happened, but suddenly whenever I try to run a command-line tool or import libraries, I get this error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/kyle/.virtualenvs/fj/bin/pip", line 4, in <module> import pkg_resources File "/Users/kyle/.virtualenvs/fj/lib/python2.6/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 698, in <module> the platform/python version defined at initialization are added.

Not sure why this suddenly started happening. Maybe a recent OSX update? Another possibility is that my hard drive was about to die, so Apple gave me a new one and ran Migration Assistant. Maybe something didn't transferred across correctly?
