Weird. The 'build' target (which really runs 'develop --prefix=support')
is supposed to create that support/lib/python2.5/site-packages directory
for you.

Do you perhaps have a weird version of setuptools that is behaving
differently? Or something that pretends to be setuptools but isn't quite?

You might also try creating the directory that it suggests and then see
if 'setup.py build' works any better the second time.

What version of tahoe were you building? Did it come from a tarball, or
a darcs checkout?

thanks,
