<h2 id=future>The Many Possible Futures of Python Packaging</h2>
<p>Distutils is not the be-all and end-all of Python packaging, but as of this writing (August 2009), it&#8217;s the only one that works in Python 3. There are a number of other frameworks for Python 2; some focus on installation, others on testing and deployment. Some or all of these may end up being ported to Python 3 in the future.
<p>These frameworks focus on installation:
<ul>
<li><a href=http://docs.python.org/3.1/distutils/>Distributing Python Modules</a>
<li><a href=http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>Setuptools</a>
<li><a href=http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>Pip</a>
<li><a href=http://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/src/tip/README.txt>Distribute</a>
</ul>
<p>These focus on testing and deployment:
<ul>
<li><a href=http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv><code>virtualenv</code></a>
<li><a href=http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout><code>zc.buildout</code></a>
<li><a href=http://www.blueskyonmars.com/projects/paver/>Paver</a>
<li><a href=http://fabfile.org/>Fabric</a>
<li><a href=http://www.py2exe.org/><code>py2exe</code>
</ul>
