Package: pep8 Version: 0.5.0-1 Severity: normal Hello
After reading the documentation and source for pep8, I think that the fix for this bug is slightly wrong. The setuptools module (one part of the SetupTools project) is required at build time, not run time; the module that pep8 actually needs is pkg_resources (it provides runtime support for SetupTools plugins). The bug is fixed because python-setuptools depends on python-pkg-resources (upstream packages them in one distribution, Debian split them some time ago to make a smaller dependency and (my guess) avoid installing the dangerous easy_install command). Summary: s/python-setuptools/python-pkg-resources/ will still work and take less space. Thank you for considering this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
