- Spack doesn't need eggs -- it manages its own directories - Simplify install layout and reduce sys.path searches by installing all packages flat (eggs are deprecated for wheels, and this is also what wheels do). - We now supply the --single-version-externally-managed argument to `setup.py install` for setuptools packages and setuptools. - modify packages to only use setuptools args if setuptools is an immediate dependency - Remove setuptools from packages that do not need it. - Some packages use setuptools *only* when certain args (likeb 'develop' or 'bdist') are supplied to setup.py, and they specifically do not use setuptools for installation. - Spack never calls setup.py this way, so just removing the setuptools dependency works for these packages. |
