> I am a bit lost on the inter-relations between the tickets #12994,
#13190, #13201, #13197 (and perhaps #12659). Could you please clarify the
dependencies?

> Also, I personally think it would be better to split this in two
tickets:
> A. Use setuptools
This should only require #13031.
> B. Use setup.py develop
This is more or less #12659 after switching to setuptools, and is where
the other dependencies creep up (they aren't strictly necessary, but the
alternative is to hack around setuptools, which is less preferable than
patching it IMO).
I'll rework the patch to only do A once we have a 5.4 beta (mainly because
#13031 more or less needs to be rebased with every development release).
