Thanks for the info. Python 2.7.1 changes behavior regarding MANIFEST, which breaks this (they revert the behavior in 2.7.3, but I have 2.7.1 installed).

Anyway, version 0.2.20 is released with a working MANIFEST file and pip install works locally. If it doesn't work, be sure you remove any cached re2 build information in your build/ directory.

Awesome, thanks.
