Description

If we removed the remaining use of setup_requires, I think it would fix at least the following tickets:

  • #2286 (the version of a library chosen for a setup requirement can conflict with a build requirement)
  • #2066 (setup.py performs work without a command being specified)

and it would be the next-step on improving these ones:

  • #2055 (Building tahoe safely is non-trivial)
  • #1220 (build/install should be able to refrain from getting dependencies)
  • #2077 (pip packaging plan)
