[Distutils] PIL install fails: that was to be expected?

[Reinout van Rees]

Hi,

A colleague is trying to run the buildout for an *old* project that has 
an *old* dependency on "PIL".
So not the "Pillow" replacement, but "PIL".
Install fails, becauce https://pypi.python.org/simple/pil/ is empty.

What I suspect is that this is because of the 
everything-should-be-hosted-on-pypi-itself change?

Yes, it should be Pillow and yes I'm in complete agreement that 
everything should be on pypi and yes my colleague can fix this with a 
quick branch.
But I just wanted to make sure that nothing major is broken right now.
(And to make this potential problem google-able :-) )
