buildbot-tac.py is the only thing that is used in /tools/build-tools, which is installed by this package. This makes it pretty fiddly to upgrade the script, and there's no reason to build a package for a simple python script. Bug 611149 will remove the need for this package, at which point we should remove the package and delete the directory it installs into.

Changing to depend on the dynamic slave alloc bug, in hopes that it will involve removing buildbot-tac.py.

I think this is ready to do now - win64 isn't in OPSI, so it doesn't block this bug.

Ben, how confident are you that we don't use things under /tools/build-tools for other purposes? A check of the build-central MXR doesn't reveal anything obvious: http://mxr.mozilla.org/build-central/search?string=build-tools

Huh, I'm not sure *where* this is installed with OPSI. I guess we can just let it die.

On Windows, the OPSI host key generator (http://hg.mozilla.org/build/opsi-package-sources/file/fcce4578d03f/hostkey-generator/CLIENT_DATA/hostkey.ins) uses d:\tools to reset the host key in fresh clones.

Both are landed, and puppet servers restarted.
