Towards #8559

TODO

  • review tests that check the absence of setup.py install in output
  • do we need to patch distlib or drop that test that checks a script can have : in its name?
  • search for egg-info in tests and verify all occurences are pertinent
  • tests that do virtualenv.clear() need to keep wheel installed in the cleared virtualenv (should fix test_env_vars_override_config_file, test_config_file_override_stack)

This turns out to have a big impact on the test suite, because most tests that do a pip install do not have wheel installed and therefore raise the new warning. Moreover many tests check that the installation succeeded by verifying the presence of a .egg-info directory. I opted to installing wheel by default and check for .dist-info.

There is still work to do (see checklist in issue description), but comments are already most welcome.

Would it be worthwhile to perform some house keeping on the test suite before moving further with this PR?

Anything specific you have in mind @pradyunsg ? The big housekeeping I see necessary is using the "normal" path by default which means having wheel installed by default in the script fixture (or adding with_wheel everywhere) and therefore relying on .dist-info instead of .egg-info, which is basically the meat of this PR :)

I tried to create focused commits as much as I could. Maybe we should merge them progressively in separate PRs...

Nope.

I took your comment to mean you were hitting some kind of issue w/ the test "infrastructure" (basically stuff in tests/lib), but looks like it was more a case of the tests being hard-coded to look for the wrong thing instead. :)

Test with brokenwheel instead of broken setup.py install
4595716 
Since the 'script' fixture will not lead to "setup.py install" anymore,
the broken-0.2broken package
that is designed to fail on "setup.py install" does
not fail installation anymore.
So we use a broken wheel instead.

Closing this oit, since this is significantly out of date. We can come back around to this, once we have the energy to tackle #8559. :)
