auto upgrade scripts?

Hello list,

Is anyone aware of a (light-weight, easy-to-use)
auto-upgrade framework for python scripts?

I find it hard to believe no one has wanted this before,
yet google doesn't find too much relevant stuff.

Thanks,
Best regards,
Stefaan.

Auto-upgrade from what to what?

Interesting question.

In my case I want my program to check for (e.g.) bug-fix releases on
some location (network drive or ftp), and if available, allow to
automatically download and install them.
Kind of like the AutoUpgrade functionality in .net (*shudder*) ;)

Best regards,
Stefaan.

Since you mention .NET and didn't state otherwise, I'm assuming
Windows platform? You should probably take a look at Inno Installer
with web update wizard:

No, I need both linux and windows. I guess this means
I'll have to make something myself ...

Thanks, and best regards,

Have you looked into PEAK's setuptools?

http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools
http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall

That might be a reasonable place to start.
