Bug#780702: python-fox should depend or recommend on python-setuptools

[Donald Stufft]

Package: python-tox
Version: 1.8.0-1

The python-tox package which was recently switched to be installed in Python
3.x regresses a bit in usability. Right now any project that uses setuptools in
it's setup.py cannot be tested using python-tox unless the person goes out of
their way to install python3-setuptools beforehand.

This isn't a strict dependency so Recommends might be more accurate, but most
uses of tox will require it to be installed.
