Basic Installation
==================
These are generic installation instructions.

This software uses the Python language's distutils system for installation.
A detailed guide for users and system administrators to using distutils to
install software can be found here:

    http://docs.python.org/inst/inst.html

The simplest way to install this software is to run the following command as
the root user:

    python setup.py install

The setup.py script will automatically detect the directories to use for
documentation, binaries and other software files.


Uninstallation
==============
During installation setup.py creates list of files and directories that
were installed in a file called install_log.txt. 

    python setup.py uninstall


Installing into an alternate root
=================================
For packaging purposes it is often very useful to be able to install all files
relative not to the usual root directory (/) but into an alternative
directory.

    python setup.py install --root=/tmp/alternativeroot/


Operation Controls
==================
--verbose
    Print more information about what setup.py is doing.
    
--help
    Print a summary of the options to setup.py, and exit.
