10 Currently distutils_install_for_testing does not install the complete
11 egg-info into ${TEST_DIR}. This was first noticed by W. Trevor King and
12 reported in bug #524322. Based on info found in the related upstream
13 setuptools bug I added the necessary call to setuptools to create the
14 complete egg_info.
15
16 Without this certain packages (like cryptography) fail during testing
17 because they use introspection but the metadata isn't available.
