Looking at some of the packages I'm interested in, there's a couple ones that don't use distutils. Of course, fixing this is best, but I'm wondering if those can be installed as well. Typically you can install these packages just by copying them into place.
You should name them, so we can publicly humiliate them into doing the right thing :) The only non-distutils-using package I have used lately is PyKQueue <http://ox.eicat.ca/~dgilbert/files/PyKQueue.html>. I submitted a working setup.py to the maintainer, but he has not posted a new version that uses it. -bob
