Trouble installing IbPy-0.7.6-9.51, error during bytecompile of EReader.py

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

# wget http://ibpy.googlecode.com/files/IbPy-0.7.6-9.51.tar.gz
# tar xfz IbPy-0.7.6-9.51.tar.gz
# cd IbPy-0.7.6-9.51
# python setup.py install


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

Expected is completed installation, instead I get the output:

seems to be fixed as follows, change line 29 of EReader.py into:

%%% start code %%%

from __builtin__ import float, str, True, False 

%%% end code %%%

i.e. remove the import of None
