Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge dev-python/setuptools -C (if installed)
2. emerge tagpy
Actual Results:  
compilation dies because it needs setuptools module, which is not pulled in by tagpy.

Expected Results:  
it should pull in dev-python/setuptools.

If you install setuptools and then tagpy, it will finish without errors.
