Wow, this is significantly broken; you can't even use setup.py to the create tarball without having trac installed. Really suboptimal.
It seems that they import the main module in setup.py so they only have to specify the version number in one place.
Exactly, but fixed in 3907adc701ba257b87c83ce64cc06a86443ae47b. You should now (from upstreams pov) be able to build without having trac installed.
I really don't understand why upstream doesn't seem to have tagged any revisions, bizarre.
Upstream (that's me) doesn't tag revisions, because there are no recent, publicly announced releases. Nevertheless I'm increasing the version number even for small changes, in order to ease deployment using eggs.
When there is a release, I will of course tag the corresponding revision within monotone.
So, Roland is doing a snapshot release package, and I already suggested to him using the naming scheme outlined in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#head-cfd71146dbb6f0... e.g. trac-monotone-0.0.12-1.20080116mtn3907adc701ba2. The combination of date and part of the revision id uniquely identifies a revision.
