Version number is invalid

[Ryan J Ollos]

This is the same issue that was found with TracMercurial in #11993. Using tag_svn_revision in setup.cfg generates an invalid version string. Besides, it's not supported in setuptools ≥ 10.

The result is that tracfullblog.spamfilter doesn't load.

To avoid problems in the interim I have this line in my site install scripts, after extracting the source from the archive:

$ sed -i -e 's/tag_svn_revision = true//g' $src/spam-filter/setup.cfg

I haven't tested, but it may be possible to retain the revision number in the package name by requiring ​setuptools_svn. This was suggested in the ​Setuptools release notes.
