Yes, 'distutils' is one of the standard library modules as of Python 1.6,
so you should already have the tools you need to automate installations
with it. It should be cross-platform as well. I believe one can even
make Windows installers and Red Hat RPMs with 'distutils'.
There's some good documentation on using it here:
http://python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/doc/
Good luck!
