Summary:                    undeclared dependency on python_devel
Description:
After installing trac, trying to get help:

trac-admin help

we get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/opt/csw/bin/trac-admin", line 5, in <module>
   from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
 File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 657, in
<module>
   class Environment(object):
 File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 660, in
Environment
   def __init__(self, search_path=None,
platform=get_supported_platform(), python=PY_MAJOR):
 File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 55, in
get_supported_platform
   plat = get_build_platform(); m = macosVersionString.match(plat)
 File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 186, in
get_build_platform
   from distutils.util import get_platform
ImportError: No module named distutils.util

After installing python_devel, everything seems alright.
