Using shiningpanda in a jenkins installation behind a firewell.

When configuring an virtualenv builder the bootstrap file will download the requirements from pypi server instead from local files like in normal virtualenv installations.
(errors see below)

copying the virtualenv_support directory from a local virtualenv installation into the directory where the shiningpanda virtualenv.py is located solves the problem for the current installation.

The virtualenv_support directory and its content should be included into the shiningpanda installation.

Kind regards
Karsten
