Django Setup Problem

For those of you that I convinced to look at Python and Django.

The standard instruction have you do

python ez_setup.py

But if you have Python 2.5, you'll get an error because the ez_setup.py that came with Django is too older.

Do the following instead.

python ez_setup.py -U setuptools

Then when you do

python setup.py install

Everything will work perfectly.

I convinced a bunch of my friends to try out a new technology, but they follow the instruction to install it, and it doesn't work. So I figure I make a note of it here for them to look it up.
