Re: [pygame] Should setuptools be used by setup.py? (and a bdist_mpkg_support Mac question)

Now I am considering enabling setuptools by default for all builds. This will allow the building of eggs. It also means that the setup.py install command installs an egg rather than a normal packaged directory. Is this a good idea?

I'd rather not have things use setuptools by default.

I noticed that some things suddenly started producing eggs
when setuptools is installed, which worries me, because
it means setuptools is making invasive changes that alter
the behaviour of existing things. I don't like that.
