Hi, I¹m having a bash at writing a buildout script for an app I¹m working on. My app uses some third part stuff like pygtk and vlc¹s python bindings which buildout does a great job of setting up in my dev environment. The problem I have is when I want to produce a final distribution - for example, in the config below do I make sure that the libs created by the [pygtk] and [vlc_bindings] sections are packaged in my final deployment (using bdist the .so files should just be in the libs/ directory and using sdist, I guess the source should be bundled)? Nothing I have tried seems to work (adding them to the eggs section of [mySop] or including them in setup.py as requirements). I¹m sure there must be an easy way to do this ­ but it has me stumped! Any help greatly appreciated, Phil. setup.py from setuptools import setup, find_packages setup( name='mySop', version='0.1', packages=find_packages('.'), include_package_data=True, package_data={ 'SopGui':['data/mySop.glade.xml'] }, entry_points={ 'console_scripts' : ['mySop = MySop.main:entry_point'] }, ) ********************** buildout.cfg [buildout] parts = sp-sc pygtk vlc_bindings glade_xml mySop develop = .
