Hi all,

I've been looking for information on this topic, but cannot really find 
anything about it.. It looks like setuptools has changed something that breaks 
a bunch of my installs (last deployed months ago) that were working before.

I have some dependencies on a python package A* which is not available in PyPi, 
which itself has dependencies not available on PyPi. 

A has a setup.py containing:

install_requires=[
        'django-inline-edit',
        ]

and 

dependency_links = [
        
'http://github.com/gabrielgrant/django-inline-edit/tarball/master#egg=django-inline-edit',
]


Now... This doesn't work anymore, where it used to work before.

I have found that if I specify the install_requires with an explicit version 
e.g. django-inline-edit==dev AND the dependency_link with 
#egg=django-inline-edit-dev it does work.


My previous experience shows that it was working without the explicit version 
before, and what I find on the internet also seem to suggest it should work.  
Has this been changed on purpose, or should it be reported as a bug?


Thanks in advance,
Thatcher
