Why not use a modified version of pip [0] (a tool for installing and
managing Python packages)?

with Pip you can add/change repository, compile C/Fortran module,
manage dependencies, install from some version control system (use
URLs like hg+http://domain/repo -- or prefix git+, svn+ etc), and
using virtualenv [1].

my 2 cents.
