Subject: setup: require setuptools >= v0.6c6 on all platforms
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/specifications//%22%3C?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e07f9c27c294d703833e81537cea11bfcaa8dadf;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

setup: require setuptools >= v0.6c6 on all platforms
Technically, we could get away with v0.6c5 or v0.6c4 on non-cygwin platforms, but if someone currently doesn't have setuptools >= v0.6c6 installed then our setup process will just use our bundled setuptools v0.6c7 anyway, so it will still work, and this makes the setup.py and the accompanying documentation simpler.
