Umm, what's hairy about pre- and post-install code ? Pretty much all RPM-like archives provide this feature in some way or another.
I'd suggest to have setup.py include a reference to two functions somewhere (probably in the setup constructor): one to run for pre-install and one for post-install.
You can do this now by defining your own install command in setup, I am providing my own build command in PyNcurses to perform some pre-build actions. -- Harry Henry Gebel, Senior Developer, Landon House SBS West Dover Hundred, Delaware
