psutil does not work on easy_install-2.4

I am using Linux, Mandriva 2009.1 x86_64.
The package psutil does not work on easy_install-2.4.
But it works with easy_install-2.6.

To reproduce:

$ sudo easy_install-2.4 psutil
>>> import psutil
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named psutil

To get it installed on python2.4 you need to install using .tar.gz but this 
is bad because when you add psutil as a dependency of your project you can 
not have such dependency solved automatically.

I can't reproduce this on Ubuntu 10.04 (output pasted below).
Can you please paste the complete output of "sudo easy_install-2.4 psutil"?

Same thing happens if I define psutils as a dependency into the setup.py of my 
project.

And run:
$ sudo python2.4 setup.py install

Why your output is different than mine?
These lines are missing:

Installed /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/psutil-0.1.3-py2.4.egg
Processing dependencies for psutil
Finished processing dependencies for psutil

Please paste the *exact* output of these commands:

> sudo easy_install-2.4 psutil
> ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
> python -c "import psutil"

If there are no further updates about this I'd close it as not reproducible.
