Two things spring to mind: Distutils (aka setup.py) and scons ... Scons is basically 'make' in Python but can be used for non-python projects (Blender uses it for instance). I supports hierarchical builds and a separate build configuration file. Distutils is the standard python-specific build/packaging system. It can be used with py2exe and InnoSetup (or other installers) to create a packaged windows system. Cheers, Steve
