If I don't include setuptools in install_requires, then I've no business expecting it to be available at runtime. Since our current approach in the Zope community is to use pkg_resources to support namespace packages, and we get that via setuptools, it makes sense to specify that my packages require setuptools. It's just unfortunate that we're not able to get what we need from the standard library for all interesting versions of Python. -Fred -- Fred L.
