See attached:
libconcord/bindings/python/README
Description of how to install the Python bindings.

Thanks. I'll include this in the next release.

Does Debian have a policy that apps have to have man-pages then? This
should be pretty easy, so I'll knock it out soon...

Thanks!

As you may have noticed, congruity does this already at the application
level. This whole process obviously takes some time, and could even fail
(e.g. if user unplugs the remote.) This change probably requires
reset_remote having a callback to indicate progress...

Congratulations (I assume:-) About 10 years ago I moved from the UK to
the US, so I know it can be a lot of work both before and after
(although, I was right out of college, so I didn't have much stuff to move.)
Compilation
====================
The Python bindings do not require compilation.
Pre-Requisites
====================
The Python bindings make use of the ctypes library. ctypes is included as part
of Python 2.5. It is also available as an optional module for older versions
of Python. See the following URL for pointers:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ctypes/
Installation
====================
The Python bindings make use of distutils for installation purposes. distutils
is a standard part of Python. Simply run the following command:
python setup.py install
You will probably need to run this command as root, since installation
requires writing files to system directories.
Direct Usage
====================
Since the Python bindings do not require compilation, they may be used
directly without installation. To do this, simply add the directory containing
the bindings to your PYTHONPATH. For example:
export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/libconcord/bindings/python
