Comment(by atagar):

 Hi reganeet. Thanks for the fix. I'd like to wrap it in an 'is windows'
 check - what does platform.dist() and sys.platform give for you under
 Windows?

 {{{
 >>> import platform
 >>> print platform.dist()
 ('Ubuntu', '11.04', 'natty')

 >>> import sys
 >>> sys.platform
 'linux2'
 }}}

 > One is "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'uname'", which
 is expected since those functions using os.uname() are not designed for
 windows.

 Uggg, why does OS detection need to be such a pita?

 > Here is the log

 Please upload the full test log to pastebin then add link to it.
 Unfortunately this doesn't include the important bits for debugging (the
 stacktraces).

 Cheers! -Damian
