Hello,

I'm not sure if that's the right place to ask for enhancements to
easy_install/setuptools?!

I'm just starting with eggs and all the fancy new stuff, and I had
somebody build a MacOS X egg for me, which I tried to upload to PyPI.

Unfortunately, setuptools did not support that out of the box, and I had
to hack a new distutils command that did that, just copying setuptools
upload command and modifying it.

This has now led to this entry in PyPI:
http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/pysqlite/2.0.6

Python Egg  	2.4  	built on Linux-2.6.12-9-k7-i686-with-glibc2.3  	
pysqlite-2.0.5-py2.4-macosx-10.4-ppc.egg  (md5, sig)  	89KB  	0

;-)
