Package: python-setuptools Version: 0.6c7-1 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Hello, sometimes I want to upgrade a package from a specify remote directory, for example, this become very slow because he need to lookup packages in pypi. An workaround is specify pypi to 'localhost'(for example [2]), this one will be fast enough, but it's a little ugly. How about provide an option to disable 'pypi'? Thanks.
