Review request for qpid, Andrew Stitcher, Dominic Evans, Gordon Sim, and Rafael
Schloming.
Bugs: proton-895
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/proton-895
Repository: qpid-proton-git
Description
-------
This change modifies the way setup.py builds and installs the Proton C library
should it not be present on the system. With this change, setup.py builds the
C library directly, rather than using cmake. The advantages to this:
1) The resultant library is installed in the site-packages directory along with
proton. This allows non-root users properly install the C librarys when doing
a virtualenv or --user install.
2) pip can be used to install/remove the entire proton stack
3) only builds the C library - not the whole proton build
4) no longer requires cmake, which is not part of a typical python environment

Testing
-------
All python unit tests pass when run against the bindings and C library
installed with this patch.
Thanks,
