Hi, I've written a pure Python module, which could optionally use an external C library. The external library is not required to be on the user computer however, so I'd like not to build the bindings by default, but allow a user to turn the build on by specifying some parameter to `setup.py`. Basically, it should work like ./configure --with-some-lib[=/path]
Unfortunately I'm not quite sure how to implement this and I'm already lost in the distutils internals. Could someone point me to the correct direction, perhaps giving me a reference to an existing distutils script? -- xi -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
