Summary: extra_path kwarg to setup() undocumented
Initial Comment:
I can't find documentation for extra_path anywhere.. but this is the
documentation I found by searching google ( http://
mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2000-March/000803.html ),
from an old USAGE.txt that sits in the CVS attic now:
extra_path:
information about extra intervening directories to put between
'install_lib' and 'install_sitelib', along with a .pth file to
ensure that those directories wind up in sys.path. Can be a 1-
or
2-tuple, or a comma-delimited string with 1 or 2 parts. The
1-element case is simpler: the .pth file and directory have the
same
name (except for ".pth"). Eg. if extra_path is "foo" or ("foo",),
then Distutils sets 'install_site_lib' to 'install_lib' +
"site-packages/foo", and puts foo.path in the "site-packages"
directory; it contains just "foo". The 2-element case allows the
.pth file and intervening directories to be named differently;
eg.
if 'extra_path' is ("foo","foo/bar/baz") (or "foo,foo/bar/baz"),
then Distutils will set 'install_site_lib' to 'install_lib' +
"site-packages/foo/bar/baz", and put "foo.pth" containing
"foo/bar/baz" in the "site-packages" directory.

extra_path also doesn't have a command-line equivalent.
