Applies equally to the python3 version.

We do have guidelines to cover this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python_package_guidelines#setuptools
But it seems to have gone unnoticed due to the fact that upstream seems to have switched from a script to a setuptools entry point in https://github.com/nicfit/eyeD3/commit/a12d08af921c26103898c5fe6ef3215d72ade980
