Stupid setuptools bug



I'm wondering if anybody else has run into this setuptools bug:

https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/280/egg_info-command-must-write-setupcfg

It breaks dpkg-source --abort-on-upstream-changes and it's really annoying me
today. ;)

If so, do you have any recommendations other than this:

-----debian/README.debian-----
You might have problems building the source package because of this issue:

https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/280/egg_info-command-must-write-setupcfg

If that happens, create the source package with:

$ bzr bd -S -- --source-option="--auto-commit"

This will include the stupid setup.cfg non-change to be included in a quilt
patch so dpkg-source --abort-on-upstream-changes won't fail the source package
build.  Sigh.

FTR, this is with the lp:system-image package in Ubuntu, using bzr of course.
