Question

I have a series of python modules I would like to put into a package. I would like to set it up such that anyone interested can just download it and install it (on unix). How can I do this?

Answer 1

You should use distutils/setuptools to create egg and PyPI to distribute your package.

See according tutorials on packaging and uploading to PyPI:
