    <thetext>The old setup.py, with setuptools, supports a setup_requires keyword argument which causes setuptools to install the listed requirements prior to running setup.

Inevitably, setuptools doesn&apos;t know about our AutoInstaller — it installs things in its own way, with no regard for what we would like it to be doing.
