This is a bug in the distutils.log module, unfortunately. It only uses print. Changing status to "feature" for 0.7a1, specifically to add & use a setuptools.log.warn that writes warnings and errors to stderr.

Warning messages must be printed to stderr. This allows for a programattic way to find setup.py metadata. > pwd ../dap.plugins.sql-0.2.1 > apy setup.py --name 2> /dev/null 'dap.plugins' is declared as a package namespace, but 'dap' is not: please correct this in setup.py dap.plugins.sql > echo $? 0 >
