Let's see if I get all these right: distutils: basic packaging functionality, part of the Python standard library setuptools: third party module to add functionality that distutils lacked distribute: continuation of setuptools after setuptools development stopped packaging, aka distutils2: Improving on distutils but not backwards compatible, will be integrated into the standard library for Python 3.3, and might then make setuptools/distribute obsolete. Please correct me if I've got any of that wrong. Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
