#5111 — Re: Merge multiple source directories into one package with distutils?

Greg,
> Is there a straightforward way to tell distutils to merge
.py files from more than one source directory into a single
package when installing?
The Selenium Python bindings does something like that, have a look at http://selenium.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/setup.py

The other option is to write some code in setup.py before calling "setup" to do the merge.

Unless I'm missing something, nothing out of the ordinary is
happening there. Each destination directory is getting .py
files from just one source directory.

I'm not talking about a package with multiple submodules,
I know how to do that. I'm talking about putting .py files
from more than one source directory into the same intallation
directory.

E.g. Source:

   stuff/__init__.py
   stuff/dir1/foo.py
   stuff/dir2/blarg.py

Installation:

   stuff/__init__.py
   stuff/foo.py
   stuff/blarg.py
