Packages needed -only- for packaging (setup_requires) and testing (test_requires) should not be generally installed. They are installed in a special place for use just during those particular phases of operation. No need to have them around in production.
Hmm, now I know why no-one uses setup_requires or test_requires... This is not a clear cut issue. I can see why people might feel as you do, but I belong to the other camp of people who believe that all eggs belong in one place... I guess I'll move those packages either to install_requires or extras_require['test'] and be done with it. cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
