If you are using Python 2.6+ you have your own site-packages directory, e.g. ~/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages. So, if this package is only for your own use, you can use easy_install's --install- dir option to have setuptools install it there, and can also set -- script-dir to ~/bin, where your console script will go. This, and other options are discussed here: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#custom-installation-locations -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
