Subjecthow to install automatically missing modules on a debian-system
Message-ID<7841a394-46ff-4f63-8afc-12b396bb8695@googlegroups.com>
It often happens I start a python-script I wrote some time ago on another
system and get messages like "module_x is missing". I then perform an apt-cache search module_x, followed by an apt-get install name_of_missing_module.deb
I was wondering whether someone here has a kind of method which automatically
looks for the missing modules as debian-packages and offers to install them?

I don't know if there's anything that works with random Python scripts.
I suppose the straightforward Debian way of it would be to package your
script in a .deb package and include the proper dependencies, then apt
would take care of installing those too.

Debian has a wiki page covering the project's Python packaging policy
and how to do it at https://wiki.debian.org/Python/Packaging.
