Comment:

 It appears to be specific to the liblas package. The regular expression in
 `def split_ball()` which parses out version numbers is coming up empty. A
 visual scan of `grep version: .\path\to\setup.ini` shows liblas as the
 only package version# not ending with '''-N''' (hyphen number).

 r1155 emits a more informative error in this circumstance, though it might
 be better to handle this style of version number instead since it appears
 setup.exe is okay with it. I'm tackling the latter now; my regex is weak
 so it might take awhile :)
