I think it would be straightforward to integrate something similar into stdeb. I'm not too much in favor of piggybacking distutils' infrastructure to parse the setup.cfg file, though. Perhaps we could parse setup.cfg on our own (i.e. replace looking for stdeb.cfg with looking for setup.cfg and changing the section name appropriately). In the near term the easiest thing is to stick with the stdeb.cfg file for now and and a new field for each of pre/post install and pre/post remove. -Andrew _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
