python 2.7 enum34 required for run, and build

[ddkn]

Hello everyone,

For python < v3.4+ builds, enum34 is required for build, and install. Is it possible to add 'setup_requires' for enum34 for versions less that 3.4?

For our package system, we need to set RUN_DEPENDS for packages to know to bring in py27-enum34. However, upon building enum34 is also required: relevant snippet:

File "setup.py", line 74, in run
from llvmlite.utils import get_library_files
File "llvmlite/init.py", line 6, in
raise ImportError("could not find the 'enum' module; please install "
ImportError: could not find the 'enum' module; please install it using e.g. 'p
ip install enum34'
*** Error code

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as we are looking to update the llvmlite to 0.22 in ports.

See here: FreeBSD bug 226463

I just ran into this issue too, it would be nice if setup_requires specified enum34 as a dependency.
