Hi,

I submitted syslog-ng to Base:System and then to Factory. It compiled successfully in my home project, then in Base:System, and also while it was under review for Factory. Today I updated my Tumbleweed installation and was surprised to see that syslog-ng is still at the old version. I checked, and it failed to build in Factory, missing "setuptools":

What changed during the weekend? :-) Is there a workaround / fix for this problem?
