In my experience setuptools creatas issues in 90% of the cases where we
used it, also it adds an extra dependency. It becomes even worse if it's
used together with the ez_* stuff, chances are good that it'll download
stuff from the net while building your package.... So What I'm doing
these days is to replace setuptools by distutils whenever I see it, it
saved my nerves often enough....
