I have also report this trouble to #beagle and #archlinux-arm irc.freenode.net which by the way promote a bit this project to all beagleboard hackers which could be interesting :-)

Hi @XL04D, thanks for reporting this issue!

This problem is unrelated with your linux distribution - FYI explauto has been successfully tested on Ubuntu, Arch and Mac OS -.

The message is in fact a problem with your distutils vs setuptools installation. As you mentioned in your first post, to use explauto you need to have setuptools installed. Yet, when you run the setup.py it indicates that it was using distutils instead:

/usr/lib/python3.4/distutils/dist.py:260: UserWarning: Unknown distribution option: 'extra_require'

Can you try to follow the setuptools install procedure found here.
