Subject: setup: copy in the latest version of ez_setup.py, which works even if setuptools... 
X-Git-Tag: allmydata-tahoe-0.7.0~94
X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/vdrive/%22news.html/$rel_link?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f71b9312a5724e7a8ad8be5f7db657dc737e2f9f;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git

setup: copy in the latest version of ez_setup.py, which works even if setuptools is already imported, or can be imported, into the current Python interpreter, but can't be imported into a new Python interpreter in a subprocess
This actually happens in practice -- this fixes the Desert Island scenario.  Thanks to PJE.
