How use Distutils for plugins ?
I've discovered the Distutils mailing list after my post to comp.lang.python http://groups.google.be/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/b66d6ea5... Does any one have an idea how to use distutils to install sub-elements (f.e. plugins) of a main packages (already installed). Thanks. -- William: http://www.opensource4you.com

You probably want to use setuptools http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools Python Eggs let you break up a package into multiple subpackages, specify dependencies, specify optional parts to install at installation time, and even have a way to dynamically locate which plugins satisfy which features.
