German's setup.py should work as it is similar to mine with the
exception that I am
not using gnome and hence not using nautilus. I guess we both has
reservation on submitting
patches on setup.py as it is unique based on the package available in the distro
and it is a big patch and also the tortoisehg installer on windows
will also add further
changes or patch on setup.py.
