Answer 1

1. Find get_entry_map(self, group=None): into pythonLibsitepackagespkg_resources\__init__.py. Insert after print self.egg_info
2. Run python setup.py and look to the last printed - broken package. Remember it, later to install again. Delete the folder of broken package and folder broken_package-version.dist-info. Run again paragraph 2, until the error disappears.
3. Remove changes from paragraph 1.
4. python setup.py install 'broken_package'
