 # Hack to allow distributing python modules since Splunk doesn't have setuptools
 # We create the egg outside of Splunk (with a copy of python2.7 and using Python only modules
 # To avoid being platform specific) and then append the egg path and import the module
 # If we get a lot of these we'll move the eggs from bin to lib
