Howdy, all. I'm writing a build script for UpLib on Windows with msys, and I'd like to find some way of installing the Python win32 extensions without running the old-style installer it currently comes with. Ideally, I'd like to just unpack the code and DLLs in my install directory, for later installation by my UpLib MSI installer. Is there any easy way to create such a simple package -- an MSI installer, or perhaps a tar or zip file? I'm working with Python 2.6 and MinGW/msys on Windows XP.
Looking through pywin32_postinstall.py, I don't think I'll need most of it -- my python is captive under the UpLib directory, and only used by UpLib. I'd prefer not to install the pywin32 dlls in the C:\Windows\SYSTEM32 folder if possible; I'll just put them with the other UpLib DLLs. I won't need "fixup_dbi()". No shortcuts.
