Basically there's two issues going on here.

First, Markos's patch is still necessary.
On a gentoo build host which is also a desktop and where setuptools
installed is "a common thing" thing fails no matter what is done without it.

Second, what Arnout said is valid too, but it's correctness rather than
a fix. python-netifaces doesn't need python-setuptools so that can be
dropped from DEPENDENCIES and Config.in, and PYTHONPATH in
HOST_PYTHON_SETUPTOOLS_INSTALL_CMDS is in fact redundant.
However if someone wants to concoct a patch for python-setuptools
there's an additional nag for the target variant - it should
depend/select BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON_SSL since pypi forces https these days
otherwise it'll be a terrible experience.

Regards.
