It sounds to me like Martin's problem isn't getting source releases, but in deploying them on systems without compilers and other tools. What we're doing at Zope Corporation is building source releases (using zc.sourcerelease as Baiju suggested), and then building packages that the system package management tools can use from those source releases. (In our case the packages are RPMs, but it could be anything.) But the zc.sourcerelease releases are a good starting point for that since the dependency packaging and management is handled for you. -Fred -- Fred L.
