Happy with multiple steps.

This runs fine, as long as SIP is installed. How do I add "requires" to  
the setup?

No problem with that. What dance should I be doing to get py2applet to  
generate the right script once everything has been built. Am I right in  
thinking that I need to write my own script to generate a pkg or dmg? Easy  
enough to adapt the existing code from setup I guess if only I knew where  
to plug it in.
