The PyPA is pleased to announce the Setuptools 2.0 release.



This backward-incompatible release drops support for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5, but is otherwise compatible with 1.x releases.



The 1.x series will continue to be supported for bug and security fixes for the foreseeable future. This means that any systems with older versions of Python should install "setuptools<2dev" or use the legacy bootstrap script, available at https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap-py24/ez_setup.py for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 users. That link is also published in the README as install instructions.



Please report any emergent issues at https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issues.
