Since there is no section in the bugtracker for [community] packages,
and the maintainer was not in #archlinux, it seemed that this was the best 
place 
for this.

python-setuptools 1:19.3-1 breaks youtube-dl.

Steps to reproduce: Update python-setuptools to 1:19.3-1 and use
youtube-dl.

Output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/youtube-dl", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 48, 
in <module>
    from pkg_resources.extern import six
  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/pkg_resources/extern/__init__.py", 
line 60, in load_module
    "distribution.".format(**locals())
ImportError: The 'six' package is required; normally this is bundled with this 
package so if you get this warning, consult the packager of your distribution.

Workaround: Downgrade python-setuptools to version 1:19.2-1.

I am not familiar enough with youtube-dl to propose a solution, but it
would seem a simple rebuild would be sufficient.
