dependency fault on setuptools version

[GoogleCodeExporter]

easy_install pyopencv does not work because it says I need a newer version of 
setuptools while in fact I do have that. (See output below.)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Downloading http://pyopencv.googlecode.com/files/pyopencv-2.1.0.wr1.2.0.tar.gz

The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c11) is not available, and
can't be installed while this script is running. Please install
 a more recent version first, using 'easy_install -U setuptools'.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
