The version I am using is irrelevant, I am attempting to Upgrade to 2.01rc1

What steps will reproduce the problem? (e.g. include Python source code)
easy_install -U nltk

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected an easy installation, I got a 404 Not Found error.

This looks similar to http://code.google.com/p/nltk/issues/detail?id=534 .

The following works for me on Debian Squeeze (unlike pip install nltk):

pip install http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/n/nltk/nltk-2.0.1rc1.tar.gz
