Update of /cvsroot/python/python/nondist/sandbox/setuptools
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv15840
Modified Files:
setuptools.txt
Log Message:
Got rid of the no-longer meaningful "depends" command. Consolidated the
replacement of the "install" command so that installation is always via
easy_install, but doesn't use the previous kludgy intereception technique.
Allow ``extra_path`` to be set, but ignore it, so that when easy_install
wraps a package that uses it, there won't be any confusion as to the
desired installation location.
