People almost never install virtualenv more than once per machine. There are a myriad of reasons why they might directly install setuptools. It's impossible to know for sure how it'll be gotten but my gut is that most people use whatever is default inside of virtualenv because that's how almost everyone i've seen who uses virtualenv does it unless they have special needs. However the 0.9 line have almost as many downloads alone as the 0.7 and 0.8 lines combined. ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
