    The bdist_sdux (SD-UX is HP's packager) command is based on bdist_packager and provides the same functionality as the bdist_pkgtool command, except the resulting packages cannot auto-relocate. Instead, a checkinstall script is included by default that determines of the target machines python installation matches that of the creating machine. If not, it bails out and provides the installer with the correct version of the swinstall command to place it in the proper directory.

    Please select the proper category when submitting patches!

    This is clearly a distutils thing.

    Assigned to Andrew.

    Hijacking this patch to take load off of Andrew. This patch should be reviewed after the Python 2.2 feature freeze.

    The code looks OK, but I can't test it... I'm sure the user base will, though, once it's in CVS.

    Please also write up some documentation which we can add to the distutils TeX docs and add them to the patch. I will then add it to CVS.

    Thanks.
