The setup.py of numpy looks big and complicated: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/master/setup.py
I guess there are even more complicated setup.py files. Do you think it will be possible in the future to make setup.py conditionless (no "if", no "else", no function calls)? I mean that the setuptools/distutils/whatever libraries will handle all needed conditions? This would mean setup.py would be a pure data structure which could be encoded in json or yaml. What do you think?
