  Distutils has been a part of the standard library starting with
release 1.6.  The documentation for Distutils is in two separate
documents that are part of the standard documentation:

    "Installing Python Modules"
    http://www.python.org/doc/current/inst/inst.html

    "Distributing Python Modules"
    http://www.python.org/doc/current/dist/dist.html

  The separate package distributed by the Distutils-SIG is needed for
Python 1.5.2 users.
