Here's my wish list after some use of Distutils-0.1.2

1. The object files should go in some subdirectory of build so that I can=
 clean
up by just blowing away that directory.

2. Sometimes I eliminate a .py file but there is a copy in build that sti=
ll
gets installed. =20

3. If you just type python setup.py the information you get back is not
helpful, since you don't know what the commands are.  I think it should l=
ist
all the legal commands.
