PKGBUILD and python setuptools

I wrote a proper post earlier but during that time i was logged out and it seems that what i was going to post just vanished so i'll just pop a quick question (are posts that you were going to post saved somewhere or do i just have to be quick posting?):

Is it possible to create a python related package and install it in a virtualenv (so that python dependencies don't pose a problem for other packages?) or is that not advisable as virtualenvs don't seem to be specially portable?

Also, is it not possible to install dependencies from setup.py when making an AUR package? I'm guessing that this would be a bad idea because of conflicting files in the same directory from different AUR packages?

Thanks in advance!

If I'm unclear or something just tell me and I'll try to make it clearer.

Re: PKGBUILD and python setuptools

Hi there!

I've checked the guidelines and they don't seem to mention anything about that and as far as i can tell the other packages just use the dependency system that pacman offers. This leads me to believe that there's something off about installing it in a virtualenv in one way or another, otherwise i'm guessing that other packages would use that solution as well in some way.

I've checked it now and hope it works, thanks!
