[XML-SIG] Newbie: how do I install PyXML to a local directory?

[Ramon Felciano]

Hi --

I'm trying to install PyXML on an ISP-hosted site
where I don't have su privileges. Can someone point me
to documentation for how to install python packages to
a local user directory, and instruct python to search
there for packages as well? I looked at the command
options for setup.py but it wasn't clear which to use,
nor how to subsequentely configure Python's path
searching to find the newly installed package.

Part of the problem is that I'm relative newbie to
Python (but love it!) and am not clear what the Python
'idiom' is for local installs of packages. I'd like to
set up my directory structure in 'python way' but
can't figure out what that is!

Thanks in advance for your time.

Ramon
