About a month ago, Matthias removed easy_install from setuptools.  I have 
sent him a few mails and bugs asking about it, but I haven't heard 
anything back.  Anyone know why he did it?  I have a package that 
currently FTBFS because of it.  :(

python-setuptools (39.0.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium

   * Make the PKG-INFO output reproducible (Chris Lamb). Closes: #894215.
   * Stop shipping the easy_install scripts.
