I am writing a setup.py for my package. I have a pre-compiled
myextmod.pyd file in my package and I want the distutils to
automatically copy it to
C:\Python23\Lib \site-packages\mypack age\myextmod.py d.
I try to add the following parameter to setup():
data_file = [('mypackage', ['mypackage/myextmod.pyd'])],
but it installs the pyd file to C:\Python23\myp ackage\myextmod .pyd,
this is not what I want.
And I don't want to specify the path in data_file to the absolution
path 'C:\Python23\Li b\site-packages\mypack age', for portability, of
course.
Any hints?

ehh.. I did a little more reading and found that this function can be
easily done by the new distutils parameter "package_da ta" in 2.4.
However, I am using python2.3 :(
So, my question becomes: how to emulate the package_data function in
python 2.3?

There is distutils.sysco nfig.get_python _lib() that works at least
since 2.2: from distutils import sysconfig
sysconfig.get_p ython_lib()
'/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages'
from distutils import sysconfig
sysconfig.get_p ython_lib()
'/usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages'
from distutils import sysconfig
sysconfig.get_p ython_lib()
'c:\\python24\\ Lib\\site-packages'

Actually you probably want to look at describing the .pyd as an
Extension. Then you can even give distutils the instructions to build
it, and as a side effect you can install it to the right location
This may not be what you want though

Hello Python Community. I bring greetings from the Haskell community

There has been a lot of discussion of late about creating a

Distutils has come up a few times. The Haskell Library Infrastructure

I learnt that distutils can be used to package python modules and
packages. Fine it does that well.
Suppose I am writing an python application (not package or module),
and suppose that I am using Linux. Where should I install the python
source files and bin scripts and data in my /usr directory?
Should the python (.py) files go into /usr/lib/pythonXX/site-packages
or /usr/lib/myapp or /usr/share/myapp ?

I'm in a situation where I need to distribute several interdependent
Python packages. There are good reasons not to combine them all into
one package. Distutils doesn't seem to be able to bundle a
heterogeneous mix of multiple packages and modules, and so I've
currently got people launching three installers in the proper sequence
in order to get software installed, which seems needlessly complicated
and confusing. There must be a better...

I got really tired of unpacking a distutils package, installing then
cleaning up. So I wrote distinstall.py - it reads a zip file, unpacks
it, installs the bits and cleans up. I've only used it on windows and
Linux and for pure Python packages.
Windows: distinstall.py Photronics.zip
Linux: python distinstall.py Photronics.zip
Hopefully somebody else will find it useful.

This is silly. How do I access data files I've installed with distutils? In a

Python 2.4 is built with Microsoft Visiual C++ 7. This means that it

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
