Yes. It moves the issue a step farther:

trac-admin /tracs/test resync
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 2603, in <module>
    working_set.require(__requires__)
  File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 666, in require
    needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
  File "/opt/csw/lib/python/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 565, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)  # XXX put more info here
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: setuptools>=0.6b1

Maybe more eggs missing
