IN response to my own post earlier... re windows users
The issue for me was for the developers wanting to start on pygtk as a
development platform
That requires
python2.5
gtk - the core gtk c+= engine
pygtk
glade - libglade and the designer
cairo
and others.. ?
and packaging all the above up with NSIS
although the same can be said for application deployment which is almost
another issue altogether
It appears though from all the responses that this would be an issue
that needs to be addressed for windows users, unlike me and by apt-get ;-)

I believe NSIS is good enough in creating a windows installer in
pygtk. There are available tutorials on this one in the internet and
I believe should be included also in the wiki. First create the exe
using the py2exe and and selected pygtk dll. I have an application
for windows which i've packaged using NSIS.
Merry Christmas and happy new year to all :D
