I know this is a somewhat tangential discussion, I have to say that when you have a hard decision to make ,such as whether to set the PATH or which package manager to preload with the distribution, the best thing to do is to give the user the OPTION to do what they probably want anyway.

Please see the setuptools PyPI page for download links and basic installation instructions for each of the supported platforms.
You will need at least Python 3. If this is not the case, you should consult the section below on Custom Installation Locations before installing. And, on Windows, you should not use the. If you are behind an NTLM-based firewall that prevents Python programs from accessing the net directly, you may wish to first install and use the APS proxy server , which lets you get past such firewalls in the same way that your web browser s do.
Please see that section and follow the steps to make sure that your custom location will work correctly. Then re-install. Again, see the section on Custom Installation Locations for more details. Example 1. Install a package by name, searching PyPI for the latest version, and automatically downloading, building, and installing it:. Example 2. Example 3. Download a source distribution from a specified URL, automatically building and installing it:. Example 5. Upgrade an already-installed package to the latest version listed on PyPI:.

However, if you specify an installation directory via the command line or a config file, then the default directory for installing scripts will be the same as the package installation directory, to ensure that the script will have access to the installed package. You can override this using the -s or --script-dir option. Installed packages are added to an easy-install.

Whenever you install, upgrade, or change versions of a package, EasyInstall automatically installs the scripts for the selected package version, unless you tell it not to with -x or --exclude-scripts. If any scripts in the script directory have the same name, they are overwritten.
Thus, you do not normally need to manually delete scripts for older versions of a package, unless the newer version of the package does not include a script of the same name. However, if you are completely uninstalling a package, you may wish to manually delete its scripts. If you want to keep multiple versions of a script available, however, you can simply use the --multi-version or -m option, and rename the scripts that EasyInstall creates.
This works because EasyInstall installs scripts as short code stubs that require the matching version of the package the script came from, so renaming the script has no effect on what it executes.
