Summary: easy_install grabs dated version

Initial Comment:
easy_install installs 3.0.0c1 instead of 3.0.0 (final).   I have duplicated this on a number of systems (OS X.5, Fedora 8, Ubuntu 9.04) with Python 2.5 and 2.6 and setuptools 0.6c9.   Here's what easy_install is searching through (md5 numbers cutoff for readability):

python2.5 -m easy_install -v PyOpenGL

Message:
Looks like easy_install is preferring PyPI uploads to SF downloads? SF is
the official source for the package, apparently uploading a few versions of
PyPI was an anti-robustness measure :( .
