Comment (by daira):

 Replying to [comment:6 zooko]:
 > Even if canercandan doesn't give more information, I now understand that
 {{{python setup.py install}}} doesn't install dependencies, only the main
 package. This is unlike {{{easy_install allmydata-tahoe}}} and {{{pip
 install allmydata-tahoe}}} and unlike just doing {{{python setup.py
 build}}} and running the software from the current directory, as is
 recommended in [source:trunk/docs/quickstart.rst quickstart.rst]. All of
 those three options will automatically resolve dependencies.

 I believe that's mistaken. All of the "build" procedures resolve
 dependencies, but none of the "install" procedures (excluding installing
 OS packages) do.
