Package: python-setuptools
Version: 0.6.14-4
Severity: important
Pip relies on being able to call Distribution.egg_name() to find the
installed .egg-info metadata of an installed distribution in order to
uninstall it. Debian has a patch in the finalize_options method of the
install_egg_info command that removes the pyversion from the installed
egg-info name, but since Distribution.egg_name() is not patched
directly, this breaks pip's ability to find the metadata later.
The modification of the egg-name, if needed, should be moved into the
Distribution.egg_name() method itself so it remains consistent.
