Hello everyone on distutils-sig@,
this is a first timer, please be gentle to me *g*

I am just starting with setuptools,
and I just cannot get my idea working:

At install time,
I'd like to generate a file with a random UID,
which will later always be the same.

I had hoped for a setup('postinstall'='my.py') or setup('preinstall'= ...)
but there isn't one.

Then I have been trying with a customized
distutils.command.install.install
class - but so far with no success.

Here is a detailed explanation of my futile attempts:
https://github.com/altsheets/coinquery/blob/master/README-setupCustom.md

I guess this is be a pretty frequent question?

Happy about any hints.

Thanks.
:-)
