I had a similar requirement a few years ago and none of the "standard" tools worked for me so I cooked up a custom installer. The details are over here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5661385/packaging-and-shipping-a-python-library-and-scripts-the-professional-way My solution was not very portable and highly UNIX specific but it worked across distros with minimal changes. You might find some ideas there that you can adapt for your setup. The NSIS[1] system can be used to create Windows installers. I don't know how well it would play with Python and the rest of your deps though. Good luck. Footnotes: [1] http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page P.S. Stylistic point but try to avoid the "!!!!!!!!!!!!" when you end your sentences. One is enough to empahsise and even that's not really necessary here. http://www.betterwritingskills.com/tip-w007.html -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in "I always avoid prophesying beforehand because it is much better to prophesy after the event has already taken place.
