Hi,
As requested in this PR I submit this patch to gentoo-dev for review /
approval.
https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/2746
The commit message:
Currently distutils_install_for_testing does not install the complete
egg-info into ${TEST_DIR}. This was first noticed by W. Trevor King and
reported in bug #524322. Based on info found in the related upstream
setuptools bug I added the necessary call to setuptools to create the
complete egg_info.
Without this certain packages (like cryptography) fail during testing
because they use introspection but the metadata isn't available.
