On my sid workstation ('fluxx'), I did the following commands, and observed setuptools download nevow from divmod.org, despite nevow-0.9.31 already being installed such that 'import nevow' worked inside a python shell.
{{{ HERE = ~/trees/tahoe-mutable-205-312/t
go: mkdir -p $(HERE)/tmp/lib/python2.4/site-packages PYTHONPATH=$(HERE)/tmp/lib/python2.4/site-packages easy_install --prefix=$(HERE)/tmp nevow }}}
I will see if I can find a machine on which this same test does *not* download anything, and then compare the setuptools/easy_install installations.
