A Note Regarding Dependencies
-----------------------------
If the project *containing* your distutils/setuptools extension(s) depends on
any projects other than setuptools, you *must* also declare those dependencies
as part of your project's ``setup_requires`` keyword, so that they will
already be built (and at least temprorarily installed) before your extension
project is built.
So, if for example you create a project Foo that includes a new file finder
plugin, and Foo depends on Bar, then you *must* list Bar in both the
``install_requires`` **and** ``setup_requires`` arguments to ``setup()``.
If you don't do this, then in certain edge cases you may cause setuptools to
try to go into infinite recursion, trying to build your dependencies to resolve
your dependencies, while still building your dependencies. (It probably won't
happen on your development machine, but it *will* happen in a full build
pulling everything from revision control on a clean machine, and then you or
your users will be scratching their heads trying to figure it out!)
