GNU pyconfigure provides developers with file templates for implementing
standard `configure' scripts and `Makefile' recipes for their Python packages.
pyconfigure supports different project needs, allowing you to write your
build/install logic in Python or in Make. Developers with existing packages
need not worry, as pyconfigure integrates well with what you have already
written.
.
While the goal is to make it easier for Python packages to provide the
standard configuration and installation procedure, pyconfigure also offers
other advantages over the traditional Python-based methods. Because much of
pyconfigure is based upon the powerful GNU Autoconf, packages that use
additional languages such as C or Fortran automatically benefit from existing
support without having to hack it in oneself, as in other Python-based
solutions. Opting to use Make to write your installation logic provides you
with a powerful, robust and flexible system that has been designed
specifically with such processes in mind.
