Error when installing ETS if Python25 is not installed in the default directory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1. What version of Python(x,y) have you installed?

    Python(x,y) 2.1.15

2. Which components have you installed? 

    ETS is the critical one here

3. Have you selected the option "Customize installation directories"?

a. Yes

4. If the answer to 3. is yes, what installation directories have you
chosen?
    The critical one is I installed Python25 in C:\Program Files\Python25

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?

b. Windows Vista

8. When you installed Python(x,y), where you logged in as :

b. an administrator of the machine

9. If you are using Windows Vista, have you installed Python(x,y):

a. simply by double-clicking on the installer

10. Regarding installed softwares on your machine, how did you clean your
machine before installing Python(x,y) (multiple answers are possible):

b. you uninstalled any previous Python distribution (including the
official .msi)

    c. I DID NOT clean the Windows registry by removing all Python-related keys
    d. I DID NOT clean the environment variables by removing all deprecated
entries

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download full intall
2. Select custom directories, install Python25 in c:\program files\python25 
   (NOT the default location c:\python25)
3. Select ETS in the list of plugins to install
4. Install

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

    Expected output: Installation proceeds with no problem

    Actual output: When it gets to ETS installation, an error window pops up. 
        The message says "C:\Python25\Scripts\easy_install.exe cannot be found." 
        I had to create C:\Python25\Scripts and copy easy_install.exe from 
        c:\program files\Python25\scripts before installation would continue. 

        It appears that even when a custom Python25 directory is selected, the
        installation script for ETS still expects to see easy_install.exe in the 
        default Python25 directory. 

Please provide any additional information below.
