rubber module fails to import

[NigelB]

rubber -d proposal.tex
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/rubber", line 3, in <module>
    from rubber.cmdline import Main
ImportError: No module named rubber.cmdline
make: *** [proposal.pdf] Error 1

In revision 412:
                src/__init__.py => src/environment.py

as there is now no __init__.py it will not import.
temp fix is to:

           ln -s site-packages/rubber/environment.py site-packages/rubber/__init__.py

this get it working for me, however it would appear that something else was intended.

I have exactly the same bug after installing rubber on MacOS 10.6, although the Installation apparently went well.
See logfile below

rubber -d file.tex
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/rubber", line 3, in <module>
    from rubber.cmdline import Main
ImportError: No module named rubber.cmdline

rubber-info --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/rubber-info", line 3, in <module>
    from rubber.cmd_info import Main
ImportError: No module named rubber.cmd_info

Just in case, permissions are as follows

rubber$ ls -al

**** Installation logfile *****

$ sudo ./configure

I found Python, this is a good start.
The configure script is running, good.
The Distutils are installed, good.
The system seems all right, so let's configure Rubber.

Rubber is now configured. It will use the following Python interpreter:
    /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python
It will be installed in the following directories:
    the main script: /usr/local/bin
    the modules: /usr/local/share/rubber
    the man pages: /usr/local/man
    the info pages: /usr/local/info
(unless you specify otherwise when running `make install')

I made another try by installing rubber through macports and this time it worked fine.

Sorry for the previous post.

Possible dup of #732470; in any case, this should no longer be an issue.
