The OP ranted that the existing packaging systems are an "all-out disgrace" (his words), without giving even a single example of a concrete problem, and unilaterally declared that this needs the personal attention of Guido van Rossum. There's a word for posts like that one: starts with T, ends in ROLL. Presumably the OP believes that not only should he not have to solve his own problems with existing packaging systems, but he should not have to even describe those supposed problems. The OP's only question was "when is python going to get a decent module distribution system???", to which the right answer is presumably "about a decade ago". Decent does not necessarily mean perfect. If the OP decides to ask a sensible question about an actual problem, I'm sure he'll get a sensible answer. Perhaps not the answer he is hoping for, but an an answer. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
