Issue with (some) layered charms in network-restricted envs

[Cory Johns]

I'd like to raise awareness of the following issue open against
charm-tools: https://github.com/juju/charm-tools/issues/117

It affects deploying charms in network-restricted environments, depending
on whether any of the Python libraries they depend on in their wheelhouse
use a feature called "setup_requires."  Most don't, but some, like path.py,
do.

The issue has links with more information and a potential partial
work-around, but it would still require some manual work by the charm
author, so I also wanted to start a discussion about other possible
solutions.
