You were right, this was the problem. However, I now have a different
problem:

bash-2.05a# python setup.py install
running install
*** Martel *** is either not installed or out of date.

This package is required for many Biopython features.  Please install
it before you install Biopython.
You can find Martel at http://www.biopython.org/~dalke/Martel/.

Do you want to continue this installation? (y/N) 


I did not see any package called Martel under the required list on the
biopython download page, and the link doesn't work.
