Comment 2 for bug 503301

It looks similar to #502817 the +package+.egg-info is an empty directory, I think that's causing this error. I fixed that issue by adding few text files inside the directory structure. I am not sure whether that is correct fix for this issue.

BTW, I couldn't reproduce it like this (using system Python):

$ virtualenv --no-site-packages ve
$ cd ve
$ source bin/activate
$ easy_install bluebream
$ paster create -t bluebream sampleproject

Are you using system Python ? Can you provide actual steps you tried. Meanwhile I will try with a custom built Python.
