judging from the support load it's causing me these days, setuptools is a
piece of utter crap.  if you want to make things reliable, don't use it.

(if the various "rails" cloners want people to use their stuff, it would be a
lot better is they shipped complete and well-tested source code kits, and
left the packaging to the huge crowd of nice, friendly, and competent
downstream packagers that exist for all major platforms these days.  the
downstream folks know what they're doing, and the tools they're using
happens to work.  both for the maintainers and for the users.)
