Hmm, I think it now only delete pkg_resource when pkg_resrouces.VersionConflict is caught, but the fix should be also delete pkg_resources when pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound is caught.
Good catch. Under previous use cases, the only time you'd have pkg_resources and *not* setuptools, it would be if you were bundling pkg_resources. Nowadays, though, some distros split setuptools from pkg_resources, so you can have an older, distro-supplied pkg_resources, but no setuptools. Anyway, I've fixed this in SVN and on the website now. Thanks!
