Python(x,y) does not correctly install selected packages, including Spyder

If relevant, please answer to the following questions:
1. What version of Python(x,y) have you installed?
Python(x,y)-2.7.5.2

2. Which components have you installed (Python(x,y) installer:
componentpage):
    b. Have you selected the "Full" component selection?
Yes, Full.

3. Have you selected the option "Customize installation directories"?
b. No

4. If the answer to 3. is yes, what installation directories have you
chosen?
Not applicable.

5. Where did you install Python(x,y) itself?
a. default path

6. Have you installed Python(x,y):
    b. For "All users"

7. What is your operating system?
c. Windows 7

8. Is the operating system 64 bit?
a. Yes

9. When you installed Python(x,y), were you logged in as :
b. an administrator of the machine

10. If you are using Windows Vista/7, have you installed Python(x,y):
    b. by right-clicking on the installer and selecting "Run as an
administrator"

11. Regarding installed software on your machine, how did you clean your
machine before installing Python(x,y)  (multiple answers are possible):
a. you didn't do anything, you installed Python(x,y) directly on your
machine without precaution

The machine did not have Python installed before and and a search of the 
registry turned up no Python-related entries.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

1. After a "full" installation of Python(x,y), I tried to run Spyder from the 
Python(x,y) home app, but nothing happens (no new processes appear are 
discernible in the task manager).  Trying to run Spyder from the command line 
shows that spyder is not installed in c:\Python27\Scripts (or anywhere).  In 
fact, a search of the c:\Python27\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\pythonxy\ folders 
shows only a single file with a name related to spyder, spyder.svg.

2.  If I try to do help('modules') in a python console run from the command 
prompt to get a list of the installed modules, I get a few errors, not too many 
modules, and a crash of python that dumps me back out to the command prompt:

C:\Python27\Scripts>python
Python 2.7.5 (default, May 15 2013, 22:43:36) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> help('modules')

Please wait a moment while I gather a list of all available modules...

No handlers could be found for logger "OpenGL.Tk"
C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\sklearn\pls.py:7: DeprecationWarning: This module
has been moved to cross_decomposition and will be removed in 0.16
  "removed in 0.16", DeprecationWarning)

    import paramiko as ssh
ImportError: No module named paramiko

There was a problem importing our SSH library (see traceback above).
Please make sure all dependencies are installed and importable.

C:\Python27\Scripts>

3.  After downloading the installer for spyder (spyder-2.2.5.win32.exe) and 
running the installer, I tried to run spyder from the command prompt, but it 
gives an error related to pyzmq:

C:\Python27\Scripts>python spyder
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "spyder", line 3, in <module>
    start_app.main()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\spyderlib\start_app.py", line 72, in main

  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\spyderlib\spyder.py", line 118, in <module

    from spyderlib.plugins.ipythonconsole import IPythonConsole
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\spyderlib\plugins\ipythonconsole.py", line

    from IPython.lib.kernel import find_connection_file, get_connection_info
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\IPython\lib\kernel.py", line 11, in <modul
e>

  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\IPython\kernel\__init__.py", line 4, in <m
odule>
    from . import zmq
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\IPython\kernel\zmq\__init__.py", line 14,
in <module>
    check_for_zmq('2.1.11', 'IPython.kernel.zmq')
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\IPython\utils\zmqrelated.py", line 37, in
check_for_zmq
    raise ImportError("%s requires pyzmq >= %s"%(required_by, minimum_version))
ImportError: IPython.kernel.zmq requires pyzmq >= 2.1.11

4.  Running the IPython QT Console yields a similar error related to pyzmq.  
Please see the attached screen capture of the error message.

5.  Earlier attempts (at least 5 of them) on a similar 64-bit Win7 machine to 
do a custom installation with additional packages over those in the 
"recommended" installation yielded similar results.  Sometimes spyder was 
installed, but packages essential for spyder were always omitted (or not 
installed correctly), for example docutils or zeroMQ.

The installation process was incomplete or corrupted.

Please try again with 2.7.6.0 (should be out any day now).
