Bug description:
In auto.py, distutilsextra finds extensionless executable scripts which are Python files, and generates a temporary *.py alias, so that they get caught by intltool.

However, if the call to "build_i18n.build_i18n.run(self)" a few lines below fails for some reason, the temporary files will not be removed.

If the user then fixes the problem that caused build_i18n to fail and makes another attempt to install the application, the temporary files will also be installed.

It's probably possible to add a work-around to setup.py, but it would be a better idea to fix this upstream, with a nice "finally" block or something similar.

Hi, I'm pretty new to linux so if you can, please explain as simple as possible :)
I'm using Opensuse 11.2 x64.

Installed all dependencies, built  it, and then when I run it I get this output:

[code]
lottanzb
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/lottanzb", line 3, in <module>
    from lottanzb.core import App
  File "/usr/local/bin/lottanzb.py", line 3, in <module>
    from lottanzb.core import App
ImportError: No module named core
[/code]

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance!.
