Hi, When I want to install a package in 2 steps, first building in a separate build dir (say, --build-base=~/temp/build_foo), then installing in my own packages directory (usually, --home=~/opt), for the install phase, how does setup.py know I've already run the build? That is, when I tell setup.py to install, how does it know that I previously ran a build, and where to find those build products?
Also, how do I use a given setup.py to *un*install its package or module? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
