What I really like to start implementing is a web-based approach of programs distribution, a bit like apt-get on debian linux (with a graphical frontend of course) or like the Installer.app on jailbreaked

When I was working on PythonCE years ago I had the same concerns.

I am wondering if Python eggs, easyinstall and setuptools could be put to use for this. Rather than starting from scratch.

I think easyinstall at least gets you the dependency checking, downloading (non-graphical) and installation. removal is a pain.

Maybe you could start with a simple gui that uses setuptools and easyinstall codebase.

(and sorry, I no longer have a CE device but just lurk on the list these days),
