[Distutils] Is there any sense to put setuptools as a requirement?

2014-03-01 Thread Piotr Dobrogost

with pip 1.5 able to install from wheel without setuptools, it's more critical now to declare the dependency (in the cases PJ mentions), to ensure setuptools gets installed. On Sat, Mar 1, 2014 at 6:49 PM, PJ Eby p...@telecommunity.com wrote: On Sat, Mar 1, 2014 at 4:47 PM, Jim Fulton
