Re: [cx-freeze-users] SQLalchemy

[Thomas K. <ta...@gm...>]

This appears to be a point of contention. Anthony (whose project cx_Freeze
is) says it's a problem with pip, which tries to force every package to use
setuptools, while cx_Freeze is happily using distutils in a way that's not
compatible with setuptools. pip developers don't appear to be interested in
changing that.

https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/363

In short, it's another victim of the Python packaging mess. I'd be in
favour of adding a simple workaround, e.g. look for the
'--single-version-externally-managed' flag and discard it.
