How to uninstall setuptools

On my Ubuntu8.04 box I installed python-all and subsequently setuptools
for both 2.4 and 2.5 interpreters. To make a clean upgrade to 8.10 I
need to uninstall setuptools. Any hints for doing that?

Thanks,

Roger

It sounds as if you installed it using debian package management. Then you
can just deinstall with that (or better yet upgrade).

If you installed manually, it should suffice to rip
out /usr/lib/python2.*/site-packages/[setuptools*|easy-install*]
and /usr/bin/easy_install*.
