Is this hard to implement? Well, you'd need to write some C code, or else implement something in a Python post-install script. I'm not sure how difficult that would be, but it's more effort than I'd personally like to put in. What about distutils2?

This is what I would like to avoid. Then py2exe or some other sort of installer is probably your best bet. ___ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig

If you need Windows users to install dependencies, they'll have to use easy_install. (I'd say "or pip", but pip doesn't support installing pre-built binaries.) Note that dependencies are all pure Python modules available on pypi, except PyQt (that is installed using the installer provided by riverbank). If everything but PyQt is pure python, then you can just have them install from source using pip or easy_install. (Or, alternatively, build an executable with py2exe.) ___ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
