Disadvantages:
* We haven't figured out exactly how to take advantage of setuptools's dependency management while also integrating smoothly with platform-specific package managers such as Debian apt. I (Zooko) think that this is possible, but it isn't yet standard practice among setuptools users. One important detail is the special option to setuptools called `--single-version-externally-managed`.
We already have [a patch](http://allmydata.org/darcs.cgi/tahoe-setuptools/?c=annotate&p=20070522155758-eb44e-15f8219675d4b35b2488bc742f46714526d61cb3.gz) which changes Tahoe to use setuptools, but it doesn't solve the "How to integrate smoothly with platform-specific package managers." part yet.
