I'm creating a software package for in-house consumption, and will be

I'm able to answer most of my own questions from trolling through the
documentation, but I have two that I can't find the answers for:
1) If I depend on packages that are not in PyPI and are not available
through some other simple means (svn, simple .py, etc.), can I note
these dependencies in such a way that easy_install will complain if
they are not present and _stop_ installation?
No. After all, if the package isn't available in such a way that
easy_install can install it, then there is also no way for
easy_install to detect its presence or absence, anyway.
2) If I already have a "main" script, is it possible to have that
installed in /usr/local/bin (assuming my install path is "/usr/
local")? If so, how? I read this section
(http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools#automatic-script-creation
) but it doesn't seem to address my issue.
Just use the regular distutils 'scripts' option.
