version 4.3.3 breaks py2app

[glyph]

We began seeing this in Mimic in this PR: rackerlabs/mimic#700.

I reported this against py2app here: https://bitbucket.org/ronaldoussoren/py2app/issues/206/py2app-doesnt-work-with-release-433-of

@glyph Thanks for the report. If the issue is to do with namespace packages, there is a currently-in-work setuptools issue which may be the source of the problem.

@tseaver Thanks for the reply. I suspect that is the issue, although I don't know why it would have changed between 4.3.2 and 4.3.3. Any chance we can drop the 'zope' and just make this 'interface' or 'interfaces'? :) In addition to avoiding the perpetual complexity annoyances of dealing with NS packages (this is not the first time it's broken our mac app build) it would also be a PR coup :).

@glyph All renaming aside, did the setuptools 31.0.1 release fix your py2app build?

[glyph]

We landed a workaround immediately afterwards, and we haven't removed it yet. However, we have upgraded setuptools, so we could try a PR that removes it...

Closing because the upstream issue seems solved and there have been no updates on this for a few years.

Thanks @jamadden ! Ronald's fix did indeed resolve the issue, sorry I didn't follow up.
