great, thanks. MIT-licensing is fine for you, btw?

It's not about apipkg, it's about importing the defaultconftest.py starting
from its file location which, it being part of a zip-file, does not work.
This loading-by-filename is done for uniformity with loading other
conftest.py files. However, i guess here we can instead just always import
py.impl.test.defaultconftest by python import path.

not sure either how many people use py.cleanup/py.lookup etc.
I am sure, though, that people are interested in the standalone py.test
version, i have been asked for it a number of times. Actually I guess
some maintainers would appreciate a
py.test --genscript=mytest [options] [paths]
which generate a custom "mytest" standalone script to be
shipped with a package or offered for download for users
to run tests in their environment.
cheers,
