Comment (by zooko):

 According to dstufft, {{{python setup.py install}}} ''is'' supposed to
 install dependencies! I don't know why it doesn't, but it might have
 something to do with #2044.

 The next step on this ticket is to write a test script that someone will
 eventually wire into the buildbot, which runs {{{python setup.py
 install}}} and then reports failure if a dependency didn't get installed.
 There are currently some tests of similar things, such as {{{TestOldDep}}}
 (comment:8:ticket:2049) which reports failure if the build process doesn't
 install a newer dep to override a too-old-for-our-requirements older dep.
 So you could copy the way that test is implemented (for now).
