Bug Description
Launchpad cannot be set up via rocketfuel-setup in Ubuntu Precise Pangolin (12.04) partialy due to an invalid version of Python being required. Also, the rabbitmq packages have trouble installing with broken dependencies
This is using a freshly updated version of Precise, with all updates installed before attempting to use rocketfuel-setup
Python 2.6 is not available in Precise, only 2.7 and 3.x are available. However, only Python 2.6 can be used to set Launchpad up
Also, rabbitmq-management cannot be installed

Thank you for filing this bug.
While we do want Launchpad to run on Precise, and this bug is good to have to track that desire, you might be interested in running Launchpad in LXC (https:/ /dev.launchpad. net/Running/ LXC) which several LP developers use on Precise; or using a full-fledged Lucid VM (https:/ /dev.launchpad. net/Running/ VirtualMachine).
