Bug Description

Binary package hint: tahoe-lafs

There is a new version of Tahoe-LAFS available, v1.7.1:

http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/wiki/Doc#TheParadeofReleaseNotes

Upgrading to 1.7.1 from the 1.6.1 that is currently in Ubuntu would provide significant new features and a few bugfixes and 1.7.1 is very stable. There are no known regressions and no backward-incompatibilities in this upgrade.

Elliot Murphy looked at it and was deterred by the presence of several bundled libs inside the Tahoe-LAFS source tarball:

http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/?rev=4580

(darcsver-1.5.1.egg, setuptools-0.6c15dev.egg, setuptools_trial-0.5.9.egg)

These are build-time dependencies. They will not be present in the resulting install-time Python distribution (i.e. what you get from running "python setup.py install" or "python setup.py install --single-version-externally-managed --record=whatijustinstalled.txt --prefix=./installdir").
