Bug Description

extract-downloads-to makes VCS systems useless, as well as extensions to control them
But currently is does not severe the dependency to them, it just voids what they do.
This happens with the 'bzr' extra and the gp.vcsdevelop extension.

As a consequence, to run, the extracted buildout will still need bzr and gp.vcsdevelop to be there in order to run on the target systems. This is hard to track for further packaging down the line that track run dependencies (e.g, deb/rpm production) and is a waste of storage and bandwidth (bzr 2.6.0 egg weighs 48 MB for me).

Done, so now an extracted tarball won't pull bzr nor gp.vcsdevelop any more.
