Comment:

 Folks, instead of fixing it so that users don't expect automatic
 dependency-resolution from {{{python setup.py install}}}, we're going to
 fix it so that users get what they expect. That is the subject of ticket
 #1494. I'm closing this ticket as wontfix. If you want to push forward
 some other issues, for example things like "disallow automatic download of
 dependencies", please find the ticket about that and add a comment on that
 ticket.
