20 >
21 > Currently distutils_install_for_testing does not install the complete
22 > egg-info into ${TEST_DIR}. This was first noticed by W. Trevor King and
23 > reported in bug #524322. Based on info found in the related upstream
24 > setuptools bug I added the necessary call to setuptools to create the
25 > complete egg_info.
26 >
27 > Without this certain packages (like cryptography) fail during testing
28 > because they use introspection but the metadata isn't available.
