Research direction
Start with setup.py and the dependency declaration for setuptools_scm, then reproduce the blank-virtualenv install using pip with the custom -i mirror shown in the issue. Done means installing synapse and its dependencies does not require a separate setuptools_scm installation from the mirror.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
when attempting to run:
venv/bin/pip install -i https://python-pypi-mirror/ synapse
on a blank virtualenv, we attempt to install the dependencies via the python-pypi-mirror, including signedjson
However, the change to setup.py to require setuptools_scm causes a failure as it attempts to download setuptools_scm directly from pypi rather than via the mirror.
This can be worked around by pip install -i https://python-pypi-mirror/ setuptools_scm in the virtualenv before installing synapse, but it would be preferred if when pip installs this as a dependency, it inherited the custom package url.
This is only a problem on new installations - existing installations will likely be fine as they already have this installed.
