Hello,

python-distribute is merged back into setuptools and deprecated.
[1] http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2013-March/020126.html
[2] http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/merge.html

I'm not sure where to report this since the bug report is not for out of
date package.

Here is the new PKGBUILD for python-setuptools-0.9.8:

Altough setuptools 1.0 will be out very soon (mercurial repo is already at
1.0b1, pypi is still at 0.9.8)

Thank you.
