Subject: Remove optional setuptools import.
X-Git-Tag: v2.3.0~109
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=50b28c5d7a1ccfc3cc3a5a8fc5cf664880598fc6;p=thirdparty%2Ftornado.git

Remove optional setuptools import.

We don't rely on any setuptools features for python2 builds, and the
optional import makes our builds depend on the environment in subtle
ways (egg-info directories, etc).
