How do I use setuptools or distutils to distribute a script as opposed to a Python package?
You should use setuptools entry points and pip install pkg will create a bin/ script for you. When you do a system-wide package installation the script will go to /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin. About entry points...

How can I use setuptools to generate a console_scripts entry point which calls `python -m mypackage`?
python,deployment,setuptools,pep
How can I use entry_points to generate a binary that calls python -m mypackage (and passes *args, **kwargs) ? I think this is the wrong way to look at the problem. You don't want your script to call python -m mypackage, but you want the script to have the...
What is the purpose of setuptools requirements of the form “package===version”
Requirement specifier section in pip docs links to the official docs for requirement specifiers implemented by setuptools pkg_resources. It specifies the formal syntax but says nothing on the semantics. Overview docs explain semantics but say nothing on the ~= and === stuff that were apparently added somewhere between vv.7 (installed...

I think I've got this. In your setup.py change include_data_package=True, into: include_package_data=True If you look at the log when doing python setup.py install, you'll find the clue: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/distutils/dist.py:267: UserWarning: Unknown distribution option: 'include_data_package' Besides, I also made some modifications to the MANIFEST.in, to make it clearer: include Makefile CHANGES LICENSE...

Thanks to xavfernandez on github for providing the answer. The problem is that the version number of setuptools-0.6rc11 doesn't match the filename of the egg file. Either deleting the egg file for setuptools or renaming the egg file to match the version number will resolve the issue. If the version...

RPM subpackages from a Python project
python,package,rpm,setuptools,distutils
No, distutils and its derivatives do not support that. You would have two codebases, each with a setup.py script, producing two different sets of sdists/wheels/RPMs. Or you could have one repository with e.g. setup_client.py and setup_server.py scripts (with different package name and list of files to package), but that is...
pip install traceback error while installing packages in Python
python,windows,python-2.7,pip,setuptools
According to this bug, you likely have a bad version of requests installed. It sounds like you need to remove requests completely and any reference to it and reinstall it using something other than pip. Otherwise pip may reinstall the old version using its cache.
ZipImportError while installing setuptools windows 7

python,setuptools,namespace-package
@Anzel's comment looked like a good answer, and I'd say PEP-420 confirms that. In its Rationale section, we read: Namespace packages are designed to support being split across multiple directories (and hence found via multiple sys.path entries). In this configuration, it doesn't matter if multiple portions all provide an __init__.py...

Python module: use during setup but not to be installed
You can include source distribution files in the MANIFEST.in file; these files are included when building a source distribution that includes the setup.py file.

What's a good pip/setuptools compliant version number for a fork of a package?
It seems that there's not an official convention for naming a fork for a python package. As @larsman pointed out in the question comments, a standard convention forking package-1.6.4 is package-1.6.4-forkname-0.1 -- and while this has been used by the Linux community (and others) for years, it has recently lost...

Store and retrieve metadata about Python distributions
The most stable, reliable portion of setuptools appears to be entry_points.

Then the system simply looks for...

First of all, the line logger.info(u'Scanning {path}'.format(path=self.path)) is not valid in Python 3.2.

You can get away with this with just a setup.py and your module--no additional directories. In your setup.py just use setup(..., py_modules=['one_file'], ...)

Python dependencies: Merging two packages into one
I think, you can't! (at least without using such tricks, as you described). The Python package system has (to my knowledge) no such notion as "allowed" packages. There could be a person, that invents a different package C that he calls B, but with totally different functionality. Such a notion...

The correct way to do this is via setuptools. The delightful Click library has a great example.
