python-distutils-extra

enhancements to the Python build system

This package provides additional functions to Python's distutils and setuptools. It allows you to easily integrate gettext, icons and GNOME documentation into your build and installation process. It also provides an "auto" module which provides a "do what I mean" automatic build system; if you stick to the conventions, you do not need to write setup.cfg, POTFILES.in, or MANIFEST.in, and setup.py just needs to have the package metadata (such as project name and version).
