Hi all
More and more python projects are "switching" to buildout.
The one I face directly is Plone.
I also administer servers and really love using their package management
tools: If I use a Fedora (resp. Debian, Gentoo,...), I insist using yum/rpm
(resp. apt/dpkgn, emerge,...) to install a software, and if the software
needs some tunning, I act on the source package, then compile+install my
tuned package.
The question is to know wether the current "fashion" to switch to buildout
will make the distribution packager work easier or harder.
Taking the example of Perl and CPAN, it seems there is no nig problem, as
well as there seems to be (in Debian at least) a specific tool to package
Perl modules. Do you thing it will evolve that way for Python "buildouted"
applications?
Thank you.
